Paris | Novak Djokovic has withdrawn from the French Open with a knee injury, ensuring that Jannik Sinner will become the new men’s world No. 1 and a new Roland Garros champion will be crowned in Paris.
The withdrawal also means that Australian star Alex de Minaur would play Norwegian seventh seed Casper Ruud in Friday’s semi-finals should he beat Alexander Zverev in his quarter-final on Wednesday.
