Novak Djokovic to potentially make an early exit from the Monte-Carlo Masters
Novak Djokovic recently finished as the runner-up at the Miami Open. Having arrived at the tournament on a three-match losing streak, he performed at a very high level until he was beaten by Jakub Mensik in the final. While he will be expecting a similar result or better at the Monte-Carlo Masters, that may not happen for a couple of reasons.
For starters, Djokovic is currently dealing with an eye infection. He has been dealing with the same since the closing stages of the Miami Open. Additionally, he hasn’t reached the final of the Monte-Carlo Masters since he won his second title here in 2015. He has made it past the third round here only once this decade, when he made the semifinals a year ago. These two factors could potentially lead to his early exit from the tournament this time.
