Medvedev joins Sinner, Alcaraz & Zverev at Nitto ATP Finals

Daniil Medvedev has qualified for the Nitto ATP Finals for the sixth consecutive season, joining Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev at the season finale.

The 28-year-old won the title at the year-end championships in 2020 and reached the final in 2021. He will try to add to his Nitto ATP Finals resume from 10-17 November in Turin.

The former No. 1 player in the PIF ATP Rankings made his sixth major final at the Australian Open, defeating back-to-back Top 10 opponents Hubert Hurkacz and Alexander Zverev in five-setters to make his third championship match at Melbourne Park. It is the fourth consecutive season in which he has advanced to the final at a Grand Slam tournament.

That was not the only major success for Medvedev this year. He made the semi-finals at Wimbledon, upsetting top seed Sinner in the quarter-finals before falling short against eventual champion Alcaraz.

The 20-time tour-level titlist also reached the final at the BNP Paribas Open, the ATP Masters 1000 event at Indian Wells. Medvedev has tallied a 45-18 record, including six semi-finals, and he is still pursuing his first title of the season.

Medvedev owns an 11-9 record at the Nitto ATP Finals. Last year, he reached the knockout stages, but lost a three-set semi-final to home favourite Sinner.
