Another step forward: Novak Djokovic hits at Wimbledon wearing compression knee sleeve

“If I know that I can play close to my maximum, or at maximum, then I’ll play,” the 24-time major winner would tell BBC afterwards.

Back at the All England Club, the 37-year-old hit with a compression sleeve covering the impacted area while rocking a Lacoste t-shirt adorning his last name. He also wore a sleeve on his right arm.

“I didn’t come here to play a few rounds. You can never really know 100 percent once you start a tournament what’s going to happen after eventual first match or second match,” Djokovic told the BBC.

“But I’m going to take it day by day and then make a decision based on, of course, the feeling or the observation or the conclusion that I and team members have made over the next four, five, six days. If I know that I can play close to my maximum, or at maximum, then I’ll play. If not, then I’ll give somebody else the chance to play.”
