The draw for the Nitto ATP Finals has been set with world number one Novak Djokovic and US Open champion Daniil Medvedev leading the field.

The season-ending finale will take place for the first time in Turin after the previous 12 editions of the tournament being held at the O2 Arena in London.

This year’s line-up are being headlined by world number one Novak Djokovic, who will end the season as the best player in the world having won three of the four grand slams.

Djokovic, who has displayed his dominance at the big events, will be joined by Stefanos Tsitsipas who reached his first grand slam final losing in five sets to Djokovic in Paris.

Completing the Green group will be Andrey Rublev, who reached the Cincinnati final and showed another consistent season, and Casper Ruud who won five titles this season as well as showing his versatility on non-clay courts.

Headlining the Red Group is US Open champion Daniil Medvedev who won his first grand slam in New York beating Djokovic in a dominant final from the Russian.

Medvedev will be happy with his group with former ATP Finals champion Alexander Zverev joining him in the Red Group.

Zverev won the Olympic title this season as well as winning Cincinnati and reaching the US Open semi-finals, but has lost the last four meetings to Medvedev.

Joining Medvedev and Zverev are Wimbledon finalist Matteo Berrettini who has had another consistent season, and Hubert Hurkacz who lost to Berrettini in the Wimbledon semi-finals.

Play at the ATP Finals will start on Sunday and will finish the following Sunday.
