Novak Djokovic, the No. 1 tennis player in the world and highest-paid tennis player of last year, withdrew from the French Open ahead of the quarterfinals after hurting his knee in Monday’s round of 16 win—leading to questions of whether he will be able to play in Wimbledon or the Olympics this summer.
An MRI scan revealed Djokovic had “a torn medial meniscus in his right knee,” the French Tennis Federation and Roland Garros confirmed to The Athletic.

Djokovic was scheduled to play his quarter final against seven-seeded Norwegian Casper Ruud, who will now automatically advance to the semifinals.
Djokovic made a dramatic comeback in a four-and-a-half hour, five-set match to get the win over Francisco Cerundolo, the 23rd seed, on Monday despite suffering the knee injury in the second set that led to “significant trouble moving around the court,” according to Roland Garros.
