Novak Djokovic will be looking at multiple records and milestones when he enters the upcoming ATP Finals 2023 in Turin starting on Sunday, November 12. The year-end World No.1 title is up for grabs with Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz heading the tournament from different groups in Turin.
The current no.1 is leading the Green Group with Jannik Sinner, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Holger Rune while the world no.2 and tournament favourite Alcaraz is drawn in the Red Group with Daniil Medvedev, Andrey Rublev and Alexander Zverev. Djokovic is facing Danish wonderkid and the world no.4 Holger Rune in his first game on Monday and Alcaraz takes on two-time ATP Finals champion Alexander Zverev on the same day.
Notably, the 24-time Grand Slam winner needs only one win to ensure a year-end no.1 title and can potentially face Alcaraz for the first time in the ATP Finals for a title match on November 19. Djokovic famously defeated Casper Rudd in the finals of the last edition to claim his sixth title and hasn't lost a match since his defeat to Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final.
Green Group: Novak Djokovic, Jannik Sinner, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Holger Rune
