After already skipping the 2024 edition, Novak Djokovic once again leaves uncertainty hanging over his presence in Turin. A statement during a press conference raises a question: will we see the Serb at the Masters this season?

Last season, Novak Djokovic decided to skip the ATP Finals, ending his 2024 season after his participation in the Six Kings Slam in October.

This year, the Serb might once again leave his spot to another player in Turin, as he revealed during a press conference before his debut in Shanghai:

"I've had a lot of success in Turin and at the ATP Finals, but I don't know if I'll play. I haven't planned anything. For now, I'll only play in Athens (ATP 250), but we'll see."

For reference, Djokovic is 4th in the Race and needs to earn 805 points to qualify for the year-end Masters.

Training future champions: spotlight on the decline of the French public model facing private academies

As federations struggle to reinvent themselves, private academies are capturing talent… but also families able to invest tens of thousands of euros a year. A system that is increasingly effective, but also increasingly unequal.

A tennis player's income depends solely on his sporting results. In the event of injury, the daily life of those far from the Top 100 can become extremely complicated.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
