Novak Djokovic collapses and calls for doctor days after vomiting at Shanghai Masters

Novak Djokovic was forced to have his vital checked during his round of 16 match against Jaume Munar at the Shanghai Masters. The Serbian had expressed his struggles with the conditions in China earlier this week before his bout.

Humidity levels had creeped close to 80 per cent mark at times in Shanghai. "It's same for every player out on the court, but it's brutal," he said.

“It's brutal when you have over 80 per cent of humidity day after day, particularly for the guys when they're playing during the day with heat, with sun, it's even more brutal. For me, biologically it's a bit more challenging to deal with it. But I had to really weather the storm today. Yannick played an incredible match from the beginning.”
