Fans fear that the fact that he will not be competing at the ATP Finals in Turin is a foreshadowing of the rest of his career.
While the tournament was represented at the biggest tournaments after the US Open, Novak Djoković was on holiday in the Maldives. The cancellation of the ATP Finals was no longer a surprise, but a confirmation that he is making his announcement come true and is indeed only pursuing goals at Grand Slam and Cup level Davis at the end of his career.
But how long after he finally achieved his big career dream with Olympic gold this year? Fans fear that a generational battle with Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner and Co will no longer inspire the most successful tennis player of all time and that the Serb will soon follow his last eternal rival, Rafael Nadal to sports retirement. Which encourages his rejection without feeling for Turin. “It’s a great honor to qualify for the finals. I was really looking forward to it. Apologies to everyone who wanted to see me there,” said the 37-year-old, adding that an injury (what really?) was the reason for his absence.
The season finale of the year’s top eight starts on Sunday. For the first time since 2001 without Roger Federer, Nadal and Djoković.
