Six-time Miami Open champion Novak Djokovic has withdrawn from the tournament, citing the balance between his 'private and professional schedule'. Djokovic's announcement on his social media accounts follows his 6-4 3-6 6-3 defeat to unheralded Luca Nardi on Monday in the third round of the BNP Paribas Open.
'He spoke about it a lot in Australia, that he misses them a lot and that it's a huge sacrifice for him not to be there. He wants them to see him play tennis but the moments at home are just as important. 'Do you need to play another Miami? Do you need to play again after not feeling 100 per cent about it? No! 'The good news is that it's not an injury though, so there's no reason why we won't see him at let's say Monte Carlo a few weeks later.
