The 2024 ATP Finals are considered the most exclusive tournament in men’s tennis, featuring just eight of the world’s best players in a given year. This year’s tournament, which kicked off on Sunday, Nov. 10, features Jannik Sinner, Alexander Zverev, Carlos Alcaraz, Daniil Medvedev, Taylor Fritz, Casper Ruud, Alex de Minaur, and Andrey Rublev.

The tournament, held in Turin, Italy, is being held at the Inalpi Arena on indoor hard courts. Here’s everything you need to know about this week’s ATP finals and how to watch.
