Novak Djokovic, the recent French Open finalist, has won the Australian Open, the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships, the Western & Southern Open and the Italian Open this year and will be looking to add another tour-level title to his tally in 2020.

Novak Djokovic has been handed a wildcard to play at the Erste Bank Open in Vienna which will feature six other top 10 players.

The Serbian world number one, who lost to Rafael Nadal at the French Open final in straight sets on Sunday, is set to return to the tournament for the first time since he won it back in 2007.

Dominic Thiem, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Daniil Medvedev, Diego Schwartzman, Matteo Berrettini and Andrey Rublev are also taking part at the ATP 500 indoor event.
