Wouldn't surprise me if we don't ever see him play on clay again. I think if he plays 2-3 more years (and I think he will), his schedule may very well be Australia to Miami, and Grass to the US Open, that's it. But that's fine, it maximizes his chances to go out with another major or even two and a couple more 1000 wins.

I would have been more surprised if he decided to play on the clay circuit this year to be honest. I think he can definitely hold up playing the Shanghai, Paris and London Masters (if he qualifies) for another 2 years in addition to the docket you have included.
