The incident took place during match point. He fell on the court and that prompted his opponent and the chair umpire to rush to him and check. After the game, he admitted that his body "isn’t the same as it was before."

"I finished the match," he laughed off the fall during the post-match on-court interview, before expressing surprise.

“I did not fall so far this year. It is surprising because of the way I move on grass - very aggressive - you expect to fall and to have these situations,” he added.

He went on to label it as a ‘nasty’ fall. He said that the real impact of the fall would be understood tomorrow.

“In terms of the fall, it was a nasty fall. It was very awkward. That happens on the grass. I've had quite a few of those throughout my grass-court career," said Djokovic, before adding, “Obviously, the body is not the same today like it was before, so I guess the real impact or effect of what happened I will feel tomorrow. So let's see."
