Novak Djokovic will attend the ATP 250 event that was moved from Serbia to Bosnia and Herzegovina and he'll bring some players along such as Wawrinka and Monfils.

The event is generally held in Belgrade but was moved to Banja Luka due to renovations going on at the Novak Tennis Centre where it was usually held.
