In a reflective Instagram post, he conveyed his disappointment without the tournament, expressing hope for future participation. Djokovic acknowledged his struggle to adapt to a new competitive reality and mentioned his lack of recent success on clay, especially with the French Open approaching. He also stated aspirations for achieving optimal performance at Grand Slam events, despite not being one of the favorites this time around.
Djokovic expressed a need to adapt to a new reality in his performance, focusing on winning a match or two rather than aiming for the tournament title.
He noted that arriving at Roland Garros without a win on clay since last summer's Olympic final presents a significant challenge ahead.
