Novak Djokovic says he will do his best to return to the court "as soon as possible" after undergoing surgery on a knee injury.
The 24-time Grand Slam champion withdrew from Wednesday's French Open quarter-final against Casper Ruud after tearing the medial meniscus in his right knee during a fourth-round victory over Francisco Cerundolo.
Recovery is likely to take at least three weeks, meaning the Serb could potentially miss Wimbledon, which starts on 1 July.
The injury will also impact the 37-year-old's preparations for the Olympic Games, which begin on 27 July in Paris.
