“We discussed this situation with him. I thought all this talk in the press would end. But it didn’t happen in the end.

Together we decided it was best that he didn’t make it to the final. It hurts both of us. He was forced to miss a special moment. Who knows if this moment will come again? For him, of course, it was not easy. We saw each other after the game, he was sad,” Djokovic said.
