Novak Djokovic (38 years old) has decided to jump over the Toronto Masters tournament, while his good friend and colleague for a long time, Canadian Vasek Pospisil will end his professional career at this tournament, at the age of 35.
Although it did not achieve major successes, the best place occupied by Pospisil in the ATP standings was the 25th place. Instead, Pospisil, the player who set up PTPA together with Novak Djokovic, had much more important results. Throughout his career, he reached the fourth world of the double, winning a total of six ATP titles, according to Sportal.blic.rs.
Vasek Pospisil withdraws from tennis
18 years of professional tennis. I'm glad I will play in front of you for the last time at Toronto. It is never easy to make such a decision. Tennis was a huge part of my life, but it became clear, both mentally and physically, that it is the right time to withdraw.
