Novak Djokovic defeated Hubert Hurkacz 7:6 (1), 4:6, 6:1 to secure a place in the semi-finals of the ATP Finals. However, he had to wait until Jannik Sinner defeated Holger Rune to learn his fate. A win for Rune would have been enough to move ahead of defending champion and world number 1 Djokovic. However, Sinner proved too strong on home soil in Turin, having secured a brilliant win over Djokovic early in the tournament.
