This is what the ATP Finals classification looks like: results, calendar, rankings and money

The 55th edition of the ATP Finals, formerly known as the ATP Masters or Masters Cup, began on Inalpi Arena in Turinan Italian town hosting the event for the third time in a row.

In the singles, it was the turn of the Ilie Nastase Group, the debut of the local idol and world number 1 in the ranking, the Italian Jannik Sinnerwho fulfilled the prediction by defeating the Australian debutant Alex de Minaur.

Before, at the premiere, a madman Daniel MedvedevBurned out in tennis, he made a mess with the racket, which he threw and threw several times as a sign of frustration, of condemning the defeat with the American. Taylor Fritz by 6-4 and 6-3.

In this ’round robin’ format, it’s not just about winning or losing, but also trying to have the best balance of sets, and even games, in case there’s a tiebreaker to determine the two qualified for the semifinals.

In this group stage, there is only one bonus for success. Too many Sinner as Fritz they pocketed $396,500 each, including 165,500 of the fee for participating in this first match, which they also received Medvedev and De Minaur.

In ATP points for ranking, 200 more for the winners, nothing for the losers.

This Monday, it’s the turn of the John Newcombe Group, with Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev as old favorites Casper Ruud and Andrey Rublev, respectively.

The tournament will be televised via Movistar Plus+. Also follow the Alcaraz match live on the Mundo Deportivo website, which provides up-to-the-minute information on everything that’s happening.
