Djokovic wasnt feeling that well. He said that he was planning to skip Belgrade this year but he didnt want to do that because of his homecrowd.
Next time you post something stupid like this make sure you know whats really going on... and btw he lost QF not first round.

You should feel ashamed at making this thread.

His inaccuracy aside, his main point is still a very valid one. Djokovic after a strong end to 2009 is again totally losing his confidence and form. This quite minor tournament represents yet another abysmal showing for the so called World #2. In fact Djokovic's last few months are probably the lowest point I can remember since he first became a top 3 caliber player in Spring 2007. Very dissapointing, I want to see alot better from Djokovic, he is capable of alot better.

We are talking about quiting not about his bad form. Its funny that you call him inaccurate when your post doesnt make sense either...

Quitting, losing, same thing really at this point. Djokovic is floundering about these last few months, playing and competing nowhere near up to his immense talent, not showing any confidence or determination out there. I basically look at his losses via retirements mid match and losses in matches he completes as the same thing after getting more familiar with him and his patterns these last few years, and I actually like Djokovic too. Either way I just want to see him get his act together since he is one of the most talented players out there and this should be his time to vye for more slams and possibly the #1 ranking.

Đoković has retired from matches in almost all tennis cities of the world, why would he omit his home city? That wouldn't be fair.

I completely agree with you but its not really what we are discussing here.
His retirement has nothing to do with his bad form. He was just feeling ill this month and thats what caused his retirement. Im glad he lost atleast he can now rest for madrid where he has big points to defend.

Did Djokovic REALLY retire when that kid was two points from serving out the set? That's freakin' sour grapes right there. Let the kid ace you twice if you have to retire. Oh man.

That's the score atptennis.com shows at least.

Ok well that's better at least. The website shows it stopping at 5-4, 30-15.

This is good news for Federer. If Dokovic now has a poor showing in Madrid, then Rafa will be seeded 2nd for Roland Garros.

That would be great, he'd lose another 360 points, and Nadal would be virtually assured the #2 spot.

And Roger would avoid Rafa in his half of the draw for the FO. Rafa would also be seeded 2 for Madrid as well.

You guys always looking at the worst possible interpretations...

Djoker tanked because if Roger's does it, there must be something to it. GOAT is as GOAT does.

Or he tanked because he realized that it is not ethical to win your own tournament.

Or because he feels it is unbecoming that Rafa enters RG seeded #3.

See what great guy Nole is?

He has severe allergy problems, is having trouble breathing, and apparently has had to have insulin injections due to low glucose levels.

Listen to his breathing in this video: (it's an interview)

And check out the patches on his body (there are some on his torso under his shirt, too)

Wow if he's really that bad off, then that's just too bad. I hope he doesn't flame out.

Djokovic said that hes not feeling well due to the current allergies hes suffering from. Hes not sure about Madrid atm and that Roland Garros and Wimbledon are his top priorities. Djokovic and his team will decide in the next 24 hrs whether or not he'll be playing in Madrid.

Great news for Djokovic fans.

They gave him insulin because his blood sugar level was low? I hope this is a misinformation otherwise if he keeps his doctor, RIP Nole.
