Novak clinched the Emirates Airline US Open Series trophy on Friday and will win a $1,000,000 bonus should he retain his US Open title.
Djokovic’s victory was confirmed after Sam Querrey lost to Tomas Berdych in the Winston-Salem Open semi-finals.
The 25-year-old Belgrade native successfully defended his Rogers Cup trophy in Toronto (defeated Gasquet) and finished runner-up at the Western & Southern Open in Cincinnati (lost to Federer) to earn 170 points.
Nole is the eighth different player in nine years to win the Series since Lleyton Hewitt won the inaugural edition in 2004. His best previous finish was a runner-up effort to Mardy Fish in 2011.
