Novak Djokovic will play quite untraditional tournaments for him and after the 2022 Laver Cup, he spoke about his choices.

The 21-time Grand Slam champion is trying to attend the 2022 ATP Finals and since he may not have enough points to be among the 8 highest-ranked players in the ATP Rankings, he may enter in another way. Novak Djokovic is a Grand Slam champion in 2022 and that is something that gives him advantage over his opponents.

If the Serbian stays within Top 20 of the ATP Rankings, his Wimbledon triumph qualifies him for the 2022 ATP Finals and so that's currently his goal.
