Former World number 1 and US Open 2003 champion Andy Roddick gives his views and possible reasons for Novak Djokovic's withdrawal from the Paris Masters. The American legend gives out the details of the possibilities of who can take the Serbian Legend's place in the upcoming WTA finals in the future as well.

This might have not been the best of seasons for Novak Djokovic in terms of titles but he has still played some great tennis this season. However, it still came as a huge surprise when he withdrew from the Paris Masters and dropped 1000 points since he was also the defending champion as well. This has also made his chances for qualifying for the ATP finals in Turin slightly tough since there will some more players who can overtake him in the rankings and take his spot.

Roddick speaks on Djokovic's withdrawal

There might have been some fans who were disappointed with Djokovic's decision but we also have to remember that he is in the last few years of his career and there are some experts who have also given their opinion on this decision.

Former World number 1 and American legend Andy Roddick on his podcast also talked about the withdrawal on his podcast and what kind of opportunities it might create for the other players saying, "That makes sense. I mean Novak has said that in so many words, and we don’t want this to take the focus away from Tommy Paul, but Novak is going to pick and choose his spots now."

This statement makes everything clear Roddick has also said that Tommy Paul will have a chance through the Paris Masters to secure qualification but he also talked about Djokovic's possible plans for the future clearly stating, "He’s going to try to juggle the schedule, where he gets enough matches before majors, but really, my interpretation of how Novak is talking is that he doesn’t care about rankings anymore." These words from Roddick make sense since the Serbian had also made it clear that he will be concentrating on Grand Slams and international tournaments.
