Novak Djokovic has pulled out of the ATP Tour Finals in Turin next week shortly after making history as the oldest man to win on tour at the Athens Open.

The 38-year-old Djokovic claimed his 101st ATP title after beating Lorenzo Musetti 6-3 3-6 7-6 (8-6).

"I was really looking forward to competing in Turin and giving my best but after today's final in Athens, I'm sad to share that I need to withdraw due to an ongoing injury," he posted on Instagram.
