Nole is second in the ATP Race to London list with 5,030 points.
The 26-year-old Belgrade native will headline stellar field at the Boodles tennis event (June 18-22), as a part of his preparations for Wimbledon (June 24 – July 7).
Novak said he hopes the inspiration of playing at Wimbledon will help him get over his semi-final defeat at the French Open.
“I don’t think it’s going to take the toll on me in the future because I’ve been in these situations before. Hopefully I can use the upcoming period to recover and mentally get motivated, get inspired again, to play my best tennis in Wimbledon.”
