Wimbledon top seed, Novak Djokovic arrived at The Boodles in a HR Owen silver Bentley with intent on playing his first match on grass this year against the Dutchman, Robin Haase. However following some sponsor commitments on site, after some consideration the world number two decided, as a precaution, not to play the match.

Djokovic has had a slight niggling wrist injury since Monte Carlo, which forced him to pull out of the ATP Masters tournament in Madrid. He recovered to play Roland Garras but said that whilst there is nothing to worry about he felt the best decision was to take the precaution not to play and chose to give the wrist a rest before The Championships start on Monday.

Before he left, Djokovic praised the facilities at The Boodles – a tournament he knows well.

Jack Sock

“I’m beginning to like the grass. I guess last year was my first time ever playing on grass so still a little new to it but definitely liking it.” He played tennis & golf @stoke park.

Dominic Thiem

“It’s been very good preparation for Wimbledon and I’m happy that I had two good practices in a match situation. I lost two times so I’m hoping I can win the first time in Wimbledon next week. This is my first year on grass, I like it but still a lot to improve because I’m still very inexperienced on it, but I like it, it’s a nice surface so I think if I have some more matches it will be also better.”
