Soon on the way to Wimbledon together? Lorenzo Musetti and Novak Djokovic

It seems that Novak Djokovic and Lorenzo Musetti also got closer on a human level during the five-set match at the French Open. Because, as the Italian media want to know, Djokovic will help his young colleague with a logistical problem. Musetti would like to graduate from school in the coming days and only then fly to Wimbledon. Which basically harbors the risk of contracting the corona virus in an aircraft with many passengers. Which would probably have the consequence that the premiere performance of Musetti fell flat on the sacred lawn in London.

According to reports, Novak Djokovic is in no great hurry to fly to the UK this year. The industry leader has once again waived Queen's, also because the bubble regulations around the Wimbledon tournament are supposed to be very restrictive. Even after Roland Garros, Djokovic came very late and preferred to play (and win) the home tournament in Belgrade. As the results at the French Open show, that wasn't a bad thing for him.
