Djokovic eyes record as Nadal seeks first ATP Finals crown

Novak Djokovic is bidding to win the ATP Finals for a record-equalling sixth time as Rafael Nadal chases the biggest title missing from his glittering resume at London’s O2 Arena.

The top eight available players in the men’s rankings – with Roger Federer absent – will compete at the end-of-season tournament, which starts today behind closed doors despite a coronavirus lockdown in England.

The two round-robin groups have been named Tokyo 1970 and London 2020 on the 50th anniversary of the first staging of the event.

Second-seed Nadal will compete against defending champion Stefanos Tsitsipas, Dominic Thiem, and Andrey Rublev, who is appearing for the first time, in Group London.
