(Reuters) – Novak Djokovic has withdrawn from the Paris Masters, both he and tournament organisers said on Wednesday.
Serbian Djokovic, 37, the reigning champion in Paris who has won a record 24 Grand Slam crowns and 40 Masters titles, did not reveal the reason for his withdrawal.
“Unfortunately, I won’t be playing the Paris Masters this year,” world number four Djokovic said in a statement on Instagram.
“I have a lot of great memories winning seven titles there and hope to be back with you next year.”
The Paris indoor tournament runs from Oct. 28-Nov. 3.
