Novak Djokovic's fans know where to be in April as the Serb signed up for a brand new event on the ATP Tour.

In the past two seasons, the 22-time Grand Slam champion was the main star at the Serbia Open in Belgrade, but that couldn't be held in 2023 as the Novak Tennis Centre, where the tournament takes place is being renovated in order to obtain an ATP 500 license.

Therefore, the tournament organizers came up with a solution and moved the event to Banja Luka in Bosnia and Herzegovina, where the 2023 Srpska Open will take place. Now, we already know a few players that will take part with the world no. 1 leading the list.

Djokovic will be joined by the likes of Stan Wawrinka, Gael Monfils, Laslo Djere, Filip Krajinovic, and Dusan Lajovic, as they will compete for a title in Bosnia and Herzegovina from April 16th to 23rd.

Tournament director and Novak's brother, Djordje Djokovic spoke about the new event, saying:

"When we started preparations for this tournament, we had big ambitions. Now, several months on, they are even bigger because we will welcome some of the most significant names in the world of tennis and, at the same time, offer fans in the region an opportunity to watch world-class tennis from the front rows."
