The 25-year-old has planned a trip to Augusta National Golf Club, home of the Masters, with John Isner next week.
But the American is happy to cancel to play at The O2 in London.
He said: “I had a golf trip with Isner next week in Augusta, which would have been pretty special.

“But I'll look forward to seeing him at his wedding in a couple months."
He added: It was going to be fun. Obviously it was a win-win.
“It would’ve been fun, him and I playing today to battle it out for who doesn’t go to Augusta, but I’ll see him at his wedding in December, so that’ll be fun.”
