Novak Djokovic rages on the eve of his match with Jannik Sinner: "Shame"

Novak Djokovic enraged on the eve of his match against Jannik Sinner: the Serbian tennis player is è furious over a doping control that took place close to the match with Great Britain on Thursday.

"I had to submit to a drug test less than two hours before the match against Norrie. It è wasnè t even a full doping control, just a blood draw. In my 20-year career it had never happened to me before", he said at a press conference.

"I received a notification an hour and a half before the game. When I talked to the representative of the anti-doping agency, they told me the reason was that it would be very late after the game and also to give time for the other team to rest, but then I told them that the winner of the game would not play the next day. An outrageous situation"

An unnerved Djokovic will challenge Jannik Sinner for the third time in two weeks: his goal è to win the Davis Cup for the second time in his career. "A man followed me for an hour and a half, I have my routine and to think about taking blood, to think about whether he will have to donate a urine sample, I find this completely illogical".
