 Novak ​Djokovic ​has withdrawn from next week’s Qatar ExxonMobil Open in Doha due to fatigue, ⁠the tournament organisers ⁠said on Wednesday.


The 38-year-old had been scheduled to ‌make his first ​appearance since ⁠the Australian ​Open but will ‌instead rest ahead of ​the North American swing.


Djokovic reached his 11th Australian Open final last month, ‌where he lost ​to world No. 1 ​Carlos ‌Alcaraz in ⁠four sets.


Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner will ​headline the ATP ⁠500 ​hard-court event in Doha, which begins on Monday, as the ​top two seeds.
