Djokovic Advances at French Open as Longtime Physio Hospitalized with Sinus Surgery Complication

Amanovic’s stable condition after a surgical nosebleed complication provides reassurance to Djokovic’s team during his recovery from a painful foot blister.

Overview

  • Miljan Amanovic developed a persistent nosebleed days after sinus surgery and underwent hospital treatment; he is stable but expected to remain in care for several days.
  • Djokovic revealed that his entire team is worried about Amanovic’s condition and expressed hope for a swift recovery.
  • He defeated Corentin Moutet 6-3, 6-2, 7-6 (7-1) despite more than three hours of play and medical treatment for a blister on his left foot.
  • The 38-year-old noted that shorter recovery windows at Roland Garros are challenging without his long-time physiotherapist’s support.
