Novak Djokovic - OUT Of Beijing

Top-ranked Novak Djokovic has withdrawn from next week’s China Open with an injury, the tennis tournament said.

Djokovic, 24, who successfully defended his China Open title last year, pulled out “due to a health problem” which he has yet to specify, organizers of the Beijing event said in a statement on their website.

The Serb won his third Grand Slam title of the season at the U.S. Open on Sept. 12 in New York. Six days later, he was forced to quit during a Davis Cup semifinals match against Argentina at home in Belgrade with pain in his back and ribs.
