Following his tough loss at the US Open against World No.1 Carlos Alcaraz, Novak Djokovic ’s future looked uncertain. The Serb entered 2025 with two big goals: a 100th career tour title and a 25th Grand Slam. He got his 100th in Geneva. That left only the Slam. But when he fell in the semifinals in New York, at the last slam of the season, questions started swirling. Would he come back again? With the Asian swing approaching, doubt was in the air.

The short answer? Yes, he is! The 38-year-old legend is back on a court he loves. He will return at the Shanghai Rolex Masters. The tournament’s official X page dropped the announcement, posting: “He’s back 🤩 Our 4-time champ, @DjokerNole will return to Shanghai this year!” How exciting is that?
