On Monday at the French Open, Novak Djokovic had a difficult situation when he required medical care for his right knee. He overcame Francisco Cerundolo in a thrilling comeback, creating a new record for Grand Slam match victories.


Djokovic was treated and given medicine to relieve the pain and inflammation resulting from his knee injury. After more than four hours of play, Djokovic was unsure of his level of fitness for the next quarterfinal.

During the match, his knee issue worsened, increasing the likelihood that he wouldn't be able to complete the tournament. Djokovic won despite displaying incredible bravery in persevering through agony, but the injury will probably prevent him from playing in the future.
