"There's been an overreaction to one defeat": Laura Robson says status of Novak Djokovic doesn't change after Australian Open

In some sections, Novak Djokovic has been questioned after losing Jannik Sinner at the Australian Open and ushering in a supposed new era led by the Italian. But it is very much not so fast from Laura Robson on that front.

Speaking in the launch of Sky Sports new tennis coverage, the pundit and former British Number One says that there has been an overreaction and the fact he is still entering multiple tournaments should put fear into the field that he is still not done and isn't close to hanging up his racquet.

"There has been an overreaction to one defeat for Djokovic. He still got to the stage in Australia where he was challenging for the title and it’s not like he lost in the first or second round," said Robson as per Tennis365.

"He has won everything for so long and all of a sudden you have Alcaraz, Sinner and a few of these other players challenging him week-in, week-out."

Robson was also pleased that Djokovic has since entered Indian Wells and Miami. Albeit the caveat is there that the 24-time Grand Slam champion may not yet play Miami as per well known tennis commentator, Nick Lester with only the first part of the so called Sunshine Double confirmed.

"I’m very happy that he has entered Indian Wells and Miami, he is probably going to play a little more than he previously has. I know he has said he doesn’t enjoy being away from his family for too long, but if he is committing to playing Masters series events, it is a very good sign."

"It might not be a good sign for the other players that he is taking it very seriously still. Look at his record. That tells you that until he retires, he is the favourite for every tournament enters."
