After enduring back-to-back 5 set marathons at the age of 37, Novak Djokovic has ultimately decided to double down on the usual claims that he faked that right meniscus tear on Monday afternoon by withdrawing from the tournament, leaving Francisco Cerundolo in tatters that he couldn’t finish off a one-legged legend, and giving Casper Ruud a walkover into the Semi Finals in his quest to lose a third consecutive Final at Roland-Garros:

A torn medial mensicus also puts serious doubt on his Wimbledon and Olympic Games preparation, and he’ll still have not won a title in 2024 when we hit the halfway stage in a few weeks…

And it also means that by default, the two sweetest words in the English language, Jannik Sinner becomes the new first-time ATP World No.1, making him the first Italian player to hold the World No.1 singles ranking.

Funnily enough, Sinner was the last person to know, because the news came through when he went 2 sets to love up on Grigor Dimitrov, before winning the 3rd Set to seal the match.

But yes, this thing will become World No.1 on Monday.
