Djokovic Feeling Discomfort after Rome Opener
Novak Djokovic confirmed he is experiencing some discomfort in his right arm after he battled through three sets to defeat Spaniard Nicolas Almagro in the Rome Masters second round on Tuesday.
The world No1 extended his winning streak to 18 matches as he searches for a fourth title in the Italian capital.
But despite his impressive record at the Foro Italico, Djokovic’s title defence got off to a rocky start as he needed two hours to outlast Almagro 6-1. 6-7 (5), 6-3 and book a third round date with Thomaz Bellucci or Roberto Bautista Agut.
