Every defeat of Novak Djokovic causes an uproar in the tennis world. This time is no different. Struggling with health problems, the Serbian lost to Australia's Alex De Minaur in the United Cup match. The defeat of the leader of the world ranking made the situation of the Serbs very difficult in the team competition.
From the beginning, the Serb did not perform at the level that fans have become accustomed to over the years. After a few balls, the leader of the ranking was forced to seek the help of a physiotherapist, but despite health problems, the most successful tennis player in history decided to continue playing.

Djokovic's moment of weakness was exploited by his opponent, Alex De Minaur. With the score tied at 4-4 in the first set, the Australian broke the Serb's serve and cruised to victory in the first set shortly after. In the second set, the Australian again won Djokovic's serve and won his first career victory over the Serb.
The defeat of the top seed and the smooth defeat of her compatriot Natalija Stevanovic meant that Serbia would bid adieu to the United Cup tournament. Australia advanced to the semi-finals.
