Novak Djokovic, seeking to complete a calendar-year Grand Slam at the US Open, withdrew from the ATP Cincinnati Masters on Monday, saying he needed more recovery time after the Tokyo Olympics.
The top-ranked Serbian star, level for the all-time men’s record of 20 Grand Slam titles, could become the first man since Rod Laver in 1969 to win all four major titles in one year.
