The 2025 ATP Tour season reaches its climax with the season-ending ATP Finals taking place at Turin’s Inalpi Arena, broadcast live on Sky Sports Tennis. World No 1 Alexander Zverev aims for his third title at the event, while Carlos Alcaraz seeks his maiden victory in Turin.
Tournament Field and Format
The stellar singles lineup also features Ben Shelton, Daniil Medvedev, Flavio Cobolli, Arthur Fils, Frances Tiafoe, and Rafael Jodar. The tournament features a round-robin format, splitting eight singles players and doubles teams into two groups of four. Singles matches are the best of three tie-break sets, while doubles matches utilize no-ads for the first two sets and a match tie-break for the final set.
Group A contains the top-seeded player or team, and Group B holds the second seed. The remaining participants are drawn in pairs, with the first drawn entering Group A and the second entering Group B. Every player or team faces the other three opponents within their group. Group winners advance to separate semi-final brackets, where the Group A winner plays the Group B runner-up and vice versa. The official draw takes place on Thursday, 12 November at 1pm.
