Novak Djokovic considers copying Federer and Nadal with out-of-character plan
Novak Djokovic appears to have had a change of heart in regards to his scheduling in the off-season.
The Serbian underwhelmed at the US Open earlier this month, and he will now need to wait until next year if he is to move clear of Margaret Court for the most major single titles.
The 37-year-old suffered a shock loss at the hands of Australian 28th seed Alexei Popyrin to put his spot in the ATP Finals at risk, having failed to win any of the four Grand Slam titles this year.
Djokovic has typically rested and regrouped during the off-season to prepare himself for the mental and physical demands of the ATP calendar.
However, reports in Mexico claim that Djokovic has put those plans on the back burner as he is closing in on an exhibition event in the country. An agreement with the organisers is described as ‘close’ to being finalised.
The 24-time Grand Slam winner is reportedly set to compete at the Monumental Plaza de Toros. However, it does not appear that it is solely a trip to Mexico that is on the agenda for Djokovic.
