Novak Djokovic cancelled Thursday's training ahead of the semifinal in Wimbledon, according to AP. This after slipping and injuring himself during the quarterfinal match against Flavio Cobolli. He described the whole thing himself as "a nasty" fall.

My body is obviously not what it once was, so I assume I will feel the real effect of what happened tomorrow (Thursday), said the 38-year-old Serbian tennis star at the press conference after the match.

I hope that, within the next 24-48 hours, discover that the degree of what happened on the court is not that bad, that I can continue to play painlessly and at my highest level.

Djokovic meets world number one Jannik Sinner in the semifinal on Friday.
