Novak Djokovic is gearing up for a significant return to competitive tennis at the upcoming Qatar Open, scheduled from February 17 to 22, 2025. This tournament holds particular importance for Djokovic as he aims to secure his 100th career singles title, a milestone that would place him alongside legends like Jimmy Connors and Roger Federer.
The 37-year-old Serbian star has been recovering from a hamstring injury sustained during his Australian Open semi-final against Alexander Zverev. This injury forced him to withdraw from Serbia’s Davis Cup tie and led to an early exit from the Australian Open, where he was met with disappointment from fans.
Despite these setbacks, Djokovic has expressed confidence in his recovery, stating that he is “almost 100%” fit. He remains driven by his passion for the sport and is eager to compete at the Qatar Open, which has been upgraded to an ATP 500 event starting this year.
In a notable development, Djokovic has been working with former rival Andy Murray, who retired after the Paris Olympics and began coaching Djokovic ahead of the 2025 Australian Open. While their partnership’s future remains undecided, both have found the collaboration beneficial.
As Djokovic prepares for the Qatar Open, the tennis world watches closely to see if he can achieve this historic milestone and further cement his legacy in the sport.
