Novak Djokovic and Stefanos Tsitsipas will both be in action at the ATP Finals

Stefanos Tsitsipas and Novak Djokovic at the 2021 French Open Both Novak Djokovic and Stefanos Tsitsipas will finish their season at the 2022 ATP Finals, for which they have qualified alongside , Casper Ruud, Daniil Medvedev, Taylor Fritz, Felix Auger-Aliassime and Andrey Rublev. Along with Medvedev, Tsitsipas and Djokovic are the only former winners of the tournament, with the Greek taking home the title in 2019 and the Russian lifting the trophy in 2020. The World No. 8, on the other hand, is a five-time winner, having won the 2008, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 editions. Most recently, the Serb played in 2021, reaching as far as the semifinals before falling to eventual winner Alexander Zverev. This time, however, the defending champion hasn't qualified, as he is still on the sidelines recovering from an ankle injury he sustained at the French Open. In 2022, Tsitsipas will be the second seed, behind only Rafael Nadal, while the 35-year-old will be the seventh seed. The 21-time Grand Slam champion is therefore at risk of finding himself in a very strong group, one that might even comprise Nadal, Medvedev and Auger-Aliassime if the draw doesn't go in his favor.
