The 37-year-old Serbian tennis star took to social media to share the news, citing ongoing injuries as the reason for his withdrawal. This development means that the field for the ATP Finals in Turin, Italy, is now set with players like Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz, Alexander Zverev, Daniil Medvedev, Taylor Fritz, Casper Ruud, Alex de Minaur, and Andrey Rublev. The tournament is scheduled to take place from November 10-17. 
NBA Power Rankings: Early Season Struggles and Surprising Teams
Now, let’s switch gears to the NBA. With the season just a few weeks in, there are already some interesting trends emerging. Teams like the Memphis Grizzlies and Denver Nuggets are making headlines for both positive and negative reasons.
Ja Morant has been on fire for the Grizzlies, averaging 10 assists or more in five out of seven games. However, injuries to key players like Desmond Bane and Marcus Smart have put a damper on their early-season momentum. On the other hand, the Denver Nuggets have shown resilience despite early-season struggles. Christian Braun has stepped up with impressive performances, including a notable dunk on Rudy Gobert that showcases his aggressive athleticism and two-way game.

Along with Matteo Manassero and Guido Migliozzi, among the 50 competitors who will take part there will also be Francesco Laporta. The Apulian, with the 13th place – with a score of 270 (64 69 69 68, -18) – obtained in the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship won with 264 (64 61 73 66, -24) by the Englishman Paul Waring, moved from 60th to 52nd place in the ranking relating to the order of merit.
