Djokovic had complained earlier this week about the lack of a rest week prior to the season-ending World Tour Finals which begin in London on Monday. The Serb had said he was trying to conserve his strength for the final event and he will now have almost a week to prepare for the season's finale. "It is a big challenge," he said. "Obviously I'm sure all the participants in London will agree that this is definitely not something that goes in the favour of us preparing for the most important event in the end of the year." Djokovic, who had not played since beating Andy Murray in the Shanghai Masters final last month, had won his previous 10 matches.
