The ATP Finals return to Turin, Italy with home favourite Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz among those playing in the tournament.

It is the first time since 2001 that none of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic, the sport’s famous ‘big three’, will play.

The top eight singles players will compete for the final trophy of the year over the coming days.

Novak Djokovic, last year’s champion and the record winner with seven titles, was a late withdrawal due to injury.

"It’s quite an honour to qualify for the ATP Finals in Turin. I was really looking forward to being there, but due to an ongoing injury I won’t be playing next week,” Djokovic said. Here’s everything you need to know about the ATP Finals:
