World No. 1 Novak Djokovic wont participate in one of the tournaments where he has had the most success, as the six-time China Open champ pulled out because of an elbow injury.I am very sad not to be able to compete at the China Open this year, Djokovic said in a statement Wednesday. I am still recovering and have been advised not to play tournaments until my condition improves and allows me to compete. I will continue with my rehabilitation and hope to be able to return to the ATP World Tour as soon as possible.Djokovic last played in the final of the US Open 2? weeks ago, where he fell to Stan Wawrinka in four sets. Despite a relatively easy path to the championship match (he was granted one walkover and two retirements), Djokovic was still bothered by a collection of medical woes. In his opening match against Jerzy Janowicz, Djokovic called a trainer just five games in to work on his arm.In the fourth round, the 12-time Grand Slam winner needed a break to have his right shoulder massaged. And against Wawrinka, Djokovic needed a timeout to tend to a bloody toe.Djokovic, who owns a perfect 29-0 record at the China Open, has a commanding lead in the rankings but has lost some steam since a sizzling start to the season in which he won the Australian and French Opens as well as four Masters Series titles.The China Open is one of my favorite tournaments, Djokovic said. I have had a lot of success there. I love competing in front of the passionate Chinese fans and I look forward to coming back to Beijing in the future.Djokovic is still scheduled to play the Shanghai Masters, which begins Oct. 9.

Walter Payton Youth Jersey .J. Jefferson has been charged with assaulting his girlfriend. Tom Waddle Youth Jersey . Brazilian national coach Luiz Felipe Scolari has confirmed that the veteran goalkeeper is set to join Toronto on loan, saying it will help him be ready for the World Cup.NAPA, Calif. -- Raiders coach Dennis Allens plans to have his team practice in pads were altered by a rash of injuries. More than a dozen players were sidelined for Sunday mornings workout, including six projected starters on defence. That forced the team into a scramble mode just to get through practice. "Obviously (injuries) are a part of camp, part of the things you have to deal with," Allen said. "But it is frustrating to not have guys that youre counting on to be out there on Sundays be able to go through practice. This is part of where we develop the foundation of the team that were going to be." Khalif Barnes, Oaklands starting right tackle the past two seasons, moved inside to guard after Mike Brisiel was held out. Alex Barron, a reserve left tackle, switched sides to replace Barnes. In the secondary, first-round pick D.J. Hayden and Chimdi Chekwa, both backups, took all the reps at cornerback with the first-team defence, while Mike Jenkins and Tracy Porter were held out. And Hayden, who hasnt played since suffering a near-fatal heart injury that required follow-up surgery, has been wearing a red non-contact jersey typically saved for quarterbacks and kickers. The defensive line was hit even harder, with only seven players able to practice. End Lamarr Houston, one of just two holdover starters from Oaklands defence in 2012, has been out since Thursday. Tackles Pat Sims and Vance Walker were also missing from practice. Its gotten so rough that defensive tackle Myles Wade, signed Wednesday because of the other injuries up front, was hurt in his first practice and has been out since. Rookie linebacker Sio Moore, the teams fourth-roundd draft pick and likely starter on the strong side, did not practice either, nor did kick returner Josh Cribbs.dddddddddddd How serious the ailments are is unknown, at least outside of the Raiders training room. Allen has been hesitant to discuss injuries since camp began and did not change that approach Sunday. "None of them are major injuries," Allen said. "Hopefully well get those guys back sooner than later." One player who might not be back anytime soon is second-round pick Menelik Watson. Watson has not practiced in training camp and has been limited to individual work in the weight room and riding a stationary bicycle. "Hes way behind," Allen said. "He went through the off-season program, but here we are in the second week of camp and he hasnt seen a down yet. Hes got to get healthy and get back out here." With so many players missing, the Raiders decided to practice without pads to give the healthy players a break. "Its hard to get multiple groups of a defensive front when youve only got seven guys that are able to go," Allen said. "We took the pads off and we slowed the tempo down at the end in the hopes that we can keep some of these guys that are having to take extra reps as fresh as we can." Notes: The Raiders signed two-time Pro Bowl long snapper Jon Condo to a three-year extension. That came on the heels of Oaklands decision to give kicker Sebastian Janikowski a four-year extension Friday. ... Ryan Baker, a backup defensive end for Miami the past four years, worked out for the Raiders after practice while Allen, general manager Reggie McKenzie and several scouts watched. ' ' '
