Djokovic confirmed that he will skip Paris Masters next month, because there is no points for him to win, since last year points will be retained, his goal is to overcome Federer as player with most weeks on the top of ATP list

It's a pity but Nadal confirmed he will be there.
Moreover there will be an audience with 1000 spectators allowed in the arena.

At least we'll see one of the big three playing and I actually think Nadal can back up his French Open win and win this tournament as its the last big tournament of the year and I'm sure he will want to finish the year on a high even though he can't get the number 1 ranking.

We all know Nadal's mentality so for sure he will want this trophy right before the season ends. Of course we want Djokovic there but he has made his decision to skip the tournament.

But there are still a lot of good players that can give Nadal a run for his money, so definitely it is still very challenging for him as a lot of young players are also coming up very quick and wanted to test the big 3 in every tournament, but Nadal will be the top seed and everyone will be going after him.

This is a wise decision make by Djokovic but I don't think the whole plan was to overcome Federer as a player cause Nadal and Federer that had a tie point are more focused on the game ahead than the G.O.A.T. However, his skipping ATP will make him have some time to prepare himself physically and medically ready for the London and Vienna tournament.

Not too surprised by his decision, he's the type of player who always wants to make new records and there's nothing wrong with that.
It is possible for Novak to end this year as a number one player, and surpass Federer records the difference between them just 19 weeks.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ATP_number_1_ranked_singles_tennis_players#By_player

Djokovic is in much better shap and he can stay on top for some long time now as he is doing and planing for his long term future its really good for him he can break many records in next few years as currently no one is going to challenge him for big titles he need to concentrate with his health issues which is very important for him to stay at top and for breaking many records.

Well we have seen with Federer and Nadal that they map out their tournaments that they will play in as they start to get older and now we might start seeing this with Djokovic as he starts to get older which I think is a wise decision to make. That is also why I think Federer and Nadal have been able to keep playing well into their 30's because of this and it will be good to see Djokovic do this as well so we get to see him play on for years to come if he can stay fit and healthy and not sustain any long term injury.

Yes, Federer started it and then Nadal follow suit, they are very selective of tournaments that they are going to enter, specially for Federer, he will have long breaks, as if he is going on sabbatical then come back strong and win tournaments.

And it really make sense for Djokovic as well, recently he had a injury, and you don't need to aggravate it as it might give you problems in the future, his still number 1 and unreachable, so it won't hurt him taking some rest and taking a pass on this tournament.

Strongkored, it understandable that Djokovic was after the 20 points which Nadal and Federer had but he can also decide because of his health.

casperBGD, he has once said it that he wants to finish as no 1 men tennis player which is the reason he chooses a game that will make him retain the slot.

Indymoney, Djokovic shouldn't be considered as a player that is in shape now due to his health status which he once claimed to be getting worse the more he play tennis and if you watch French open youll see him when hes in pain.

vella85, Nadal and Federer map out the tournament they played but it not because of their age, it was because of the money involved, opportunities, spend time with their family and point in their ranking which also what Djokovic did when he decided to skip AUS.

I guess the two make the decision because of the friendship between them but it necessary for them to be selective of the tournament they play since they are rich already, their family need them sometime and playing without a break could also lead to their imperfections.

This is my favorite game. But it hard me to win anytime I bet. I think I will try cansino gambling right now to see if it will work for my favour in this season.

Tennis is not a difficult to win game and if you havent won a single bet it's because you are putting the right thing ( how good each players are on the surface the game will be play, previous record, healthy status and the rivalry level between the players) into consideration before making your bet.

Also if Wimbledon won’t be arranged next season then fans may never get to see Fedder play for the last time at Wimbledon, and that’ll be heartbreaking news for all the tennis fans. Lastly I’m personally expecting, that Fedder will retire after playing in next year’s Wimbledon.

https://www.eurosport.com/tennis/wimbledon-confirms-three-options-on-table-for-2021-tournament_sto7952032/story.shtml

If the rumours about Federer retirement become true there will be unforgettable moments for Him at wimbledon if can win the next GS title for total 21 GS in 2021.

@Juggy777 - Of course we wanted to see more tennis, but if the pandemic is still not contained in early 2021 and on the contrary, second or third wave is happening, I doubt that we will tournaments except Grand Slams but with strict health regulations.

I believed that Federer will still push for a final slam next year for title number 21 in AO on Wimbly.

Age could be the crucial factor. I know all three (Fed, Nadal, Djok) are all playing really well into their thirties... but Federer is 39 now, and surely he can't stay up at the top for much longer? Which would leave the French with Nadal, so he gains +1 slam each year... but the other 3 you'd prefer Djokovic to Nadal, so he has 3 big chances and one outside chance each year to catch Federer. Ignoring the up-and-coming stars, who aren't quite at the 'big 3' level. But given Nadal's ridiculous dominance in France, you wouldn't put it past him to keep winning in Roland Garros every year into his forties!

yeah, i think that his goal for the season is to finish it on the No.1, and probably all the plans are on final masters of the season, which seem to be enough to secure him top spot, and then it is a piece of cake to finish on top after AO, and reach Federer and probably stay on No.1 for some more time, to make it harder for someone new to surpass him in the long term, since one will need at least ten years to reach and surpass him, from new players

think that we can already says congrats him for that achievement, reaching the number of GS will be another story

So we can't discounted the fact that once he fully recovered, he will target both the Australian and the Wimbledon as he has a good record on that surface. So let's see how it will goes for him and tennis in general in 2021. And maybe he will think of retiring if he won at least a Grand Slam next year.

i would count him out from Australian Open, Djokovic is at home there, and i do not see a possibility for a Federer to win 3:0 against Djokovic there, and with more than 3 sets, i do not think that he can win at all
Wimbledon is another story, and Federer could win it, if the serve would serve him well, that is a fact, and older players have chances there, since the points are short and 5 set match could finish in three-and-a-half hours, so his chances are much better there, all other GS are out of reach for him IMHO

Right now Injury and age factor both going against Federer and I am counting him just some good and respectable place in both Australian open and Wimbeldon but no winner because now few youngsters also improving very good and have some good qualities to beat him so very few chances for him to win any grand slam after coming out of this injury time.

Personally, I love Federer but his misfortune is that he plays at the same time with two other greatest champions in tennis history, Nadal and Djokovic.
Since he is the oldest of the three and injured, I give him very little chance of winning another GS.

I respect your love for Federer but practically now you have to understand now its really hard for him as he is oldest in current generation players and we have some very tough and hard fighters so surely I also want him to win but its very very difficult.

That is the main concern I have with Federer now is his age is starting to go against him however he has the mental toughness which helps him get through tough matches and even though he is coming back from injury he has always been in good shape. Not sure if he can win another grand slam before he retires but I can see him making it far in grand slam tournaments and lets not forget that even though the young talent are starting to come up through the ranks, they still need to beat the big three which they still can't seem to do in big tournaments.

So we can't discounted the fact that once he fully recovered, he will target both the Australian and the Wimbledon as he has a good record on that surface. So let's see how it will goes for him and tennis in general in 2021. And maybe he will think of retiring if he won at least a Grand Slam next year.

i would count him out from Australian Open, Djokovic is at home there, and i do not see a possibility for a Federer to win 3:0 against Djokovic there, and with more than 3 sets, i do not think that he can win at all
Wimbledon is another story, and Federer could win it, if the serve would serve him well, that is a fact, and older players have chances there, since the points are short and 5 set match could finish in three-and-a-half hours, so his chances are much better there, all other GS are out of reach for him IMHO

Right now Injury and age factor both going against Federer and I am counting him just some good and respectable place in both Australian open and Wimbeldon but no winner because now few youngsters also improving very good and have some good qualities to beat him so very few chances for him to win any grand slam after coming out of this injury time.

Personally, I love Federer but his misfortune is that he plays at the same time with two other greatest champions in tennis history, Nadal and Djokovic.
Since he is the oldest of the three and injured, I give him very little chance of winning another GS.
