    Djokovic Declares Injury Almost Healed, Sets Sights On 100th ATP Title In Doha

    Former World No: Former World No.1 Novak Djokovic has provided a positive update on his fitness, revealing that his leg injury — which forced him to retire from the Australian Open semifinals — is now "almost 100 percent healed". The 37-year-old Serbian is set to return to action at the Qatar Open in Doha, starting February 17, as he eyes a historic milestone of winning his 100th ATP title.

    Speaking to Montenegrin newspaper Vijesti, Djokovic confirmed he has been cleared by his medical team to resume full training and competition. "There's no longer any muscle tear. The injury is almost 100 percent healed, and I’m ready to go for more victories," Djokovic said. "I have the green light from the medical team to train and prepare. The Doha tournament is in seven days, and I’m sticking to my schedule."

    Djokovic's bid for a record-extending 25th Grand Slam title at the Australian Open was derailed when he was forced to retire injured after dropping the opening set against Alexander Zverev in the semifinals. The injury had troubled him during his quarterfinal battle against Carlos Alcaraz, raising concerns about his immediate future on the tour.
