lol theseth1119 probably having an orgasm as we speak

 

Yay!! Jannik Sinner has come to defend his Shanghai title!
I am so happy!

 

Oh. Nice to see Roger is back. But thread opener is trolling MTF.

 

Unlike your posts,NUMBERS DON'T LIE!!!!

 

Amazing news, the best-ever Asian swing player in the house. Seeing Djokovic play fills us, tennis fans, with joy and happiness. Novak is so inspiring.

 

 

Not bad a promo poster.

Zhang Zhizhen looks cool, gives me "Hero" (film) vibes

 

I'm surprised, he should have skipped the Asian swing and just played a few indoor tournaments to end the year

 

He wants to get some warm up matches for the 6 Kings Slam

 

I kinda expected this. But good, he should play if he feels like he might go deep again.

 

Fed sure is busy at this time of year!

 

China interestingly loves Djokovic more than most countries so it's a no brainer IMO — Djokovic did say he's gonna play more Bo3 tournaments probably because he seems physically shocked when just playing Slams.

 

As I suspected, he will do Shanghai to get some matches to peak for 6 Kings Slam

It is a slam after all

Then will surely skip Bercy and play Athens

Basel/Vienna of course not as it is only a few days after 6 Kings Slam

Since he is not playing Davis Cup, I have not given up on Turin, though it is 50-50 at best

 

lol 6 kings slam is played indoors, not outdoors - it will be completely difference conditions and he doesn't need any preparation for an exhibition event anyways

 

It's a mistake in my opinion. Djokovic should focus on Paris indoors masters at this part of the season, it's his best shot in winning a Big Title.
I'll still cheer for him in Shanghai anyway.

Do you think that the tournaments he plays like in Shanghai has anything to do with sporting reasons?
He doesn't really care at this point about rankings or winning Big Titles outside of Slams.
It all has to do with money and sponsorship.Last year after the Us Open he was pretty much done with the season but he still played in Shanghai;so we know that his big sponsors have a big say why he plays this event.

 

Unlike in the West, Djokovic is very popular and positively viewed in Eastern countries. It's understandable that he wants to go there more, as he values love and respect from people.

 

I can see Djokovic playing Shanghai, 6 Kings Slam, and Athens, but that's probably it for 2025!!
