"They gifted the tournament to Djokovic": Tennis fans allege Djokovic handed easy draw again at Wimbledon

Following the release of the men's draw at the 2023 Wimbledon Championships, tennis fans are of a mixed opinion regarding the outcome of the tournament.

Earlier this week, the grass-court Grand Slam released their list of seeded players, with World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz as the top seed, whereas defending champion Novak Djokovic had been seeded No. 2.

The recently released men's draw featured Alexander Zverev, Frances Tiafoe, Alex de Minaur, and Holger Rune in Alcaraz's top quarter. However, Nick Kyrgios, who was sidelined for several months due to an injury, Andrey Rublev, and Lorenzo Musetti were all drawn in Djokovic's quarter.

This led to several fans complaining about the projected matches, with some fans believing the Serbian had a more favorable draw than the Spaniard.

"Lmao they gifted the tournament to Djokovic but it’s fine. Only people that have a chance against him on grass is Alcaraz, Zverev, and Sinner at this point," wrote one fan.

"As expected lol. I guess Wimbledon is happy to see the same 36 year old man win their tournament 5 times in a row. How *exciting," said another fan.

"Djokovic easy quarter, Alcaraz quarter of death," chimed in another fan.

"EVERY. SINGLE. GRAND SLAM, DJOKOVIC GETS AN EASY DRAW," said one fan.

"So Rune and Medvedev, the only somewhat decent players on grass are both in Alcaraz's half while Djokovic gets Rublev and whipping boy Ruud 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️His draw all the way to the SF is just a joke as usual!" wrote another exasperated fan.
