Novak Djokovic comeback stalls in Dubai after more pain in right elbowSRDJAN STEVANOVIC/GETTY IMAGES Novak Djokovic is entered in next week's Qatar Open but could miss it due to pain in his right elbow. The comeback plans for Novak Djokovic stalled on Friday (Saturday NZ Time) when a recurrence of pain in his right elbow forced him to withdraw from an exhibition tournament in the United Arab Emirates. Djokovic hasn't played competitively since he retired in the Wimbledon quarterfinals because of the elbow injury. "I am terribly disappointed that I am forced to withdraw," Djokovic said in a statement on his website. Djokovic is entered in the Qatar Open starting on Monday in Doha, where he's the two-time defending champion.
