Despite recent surgeries, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray are gearing up for a competitive return to Wimbledon, as revealed in Friday's draw. Djokovic has been practicing diligently following knee surgery, while Murray, who had a cyst removed from his spinal cord, is still undecided about his participation in singles, leaning towards a doubles entry with his brother, Jamie.
Djokovic, a seven-time Wimbledon champion, appears physically prepared for the tournament set to begin Monday, showcasing his readiness in recent practice sessions.
