Yearly summary
Early hard court season
United Cup
Djokovic represented Team Serbia in the United Cup. Serbia was drawn into Group E along with Team China and Team Czech Republic. Serbia registered a 2-1 win against China, with Djokovic winning against Zhizhen Zhang in his singles match, and in his doubles match, alongside teammate Olga Danilovic, against Zhang and Qinwen Zheng. Serbia then went on to defeat Czech Republic 2-1 as well, with Djokovic winning his singles match against Jiri Lehecka in three sets. Serbia topped Group E and reached the quarter finals.
But after the match against Lehecka, Djokovic raised injury concerns, claiming that he was struggling with an injury in his wrist. In the quarter final against hosts Team Australia, Djokovic lost to Alex De Minaur in straight sets, and struggled with his wrist again. Serbia lost to Australia 3-0 eventually, hence getting knocked out of the United Cup.
Australian Open
Djokovic reached the semi finals and lost to Jannik Sinner in four sets. It was his first ever loss in an Australian open semifinal or final (previously he was 10-0 in semifinals and 20-0 in semifinals and finals combined).[4]
Indian Wells Open
Djokovic received a first round bye into the Indian Wells Open and defeated Aleksandar Vukic in three sets to open up his Indian Wells campaign. He was then defeated by lucky loser Luca Nardi ranked #123 in the world at the time, in three sets in the third round. This marked the lowest ranked opponent to ever beat Djokovic in any Masters 1000 tournament or Grand Slam event in his career.
