Greg Rusedski names his favourite for the ATP Finals between Carlos Alcaraz, Alexander Zverev and Novak Djokovic

With Jannik Sinner’s early season-ending injury leaving a void at this year’s ATP Finals, three players now stand as the primary contenders for the title in Turin: Carlos Alcaraz, Alexander Zverev, and Novak Djokovic. Former Grand Slam finalist Greg Rusedski has weighed in, selecting Alcaraz as his pick to emerge victorious, despite acknowledging the Spaniard’s serve hasn’t yet returned to its peak form following a wrist injury that sidelined him for months.

Alcaraz, who returned at the US Open and later won the Laver Cup and Japan Open, has never lifted the ATP Finals trophy, though his recent resurgence positions him as a dark horse. Djokovic, a seven-time champion, and Zverev, who won in 2018 and 2021, remain formidable threats, with all three expected to battle fiercely in Turin.

The eight-man field is set, including rising stars like Ben Shelton and Frances Tiafoe, but the spotlight will remain on these three veterans and Alcaraz’s ability to adapt mid-season.
