The Serbian decided not to play until the beginning of March, when he will appear at the Masters tournament in Indian Wells. The best of all time has already announced that this year he will certainly perform at all the Grand Slam tournaments as well as at the LOI in Paris, while the decisions for all other participations will be made depending on the current situation.

The rest will not affect his ranking, given his clear lead over Alcaraz in the latest ATP rankings. Djokovic did not perform in Indian Wells or in Miami last year, so now he has the opportunity to win 2,000 new points and strengthen himself at the top of the ATP list by winning these two Masters tournaments.
