Format edit

The ATP Finals group stage has a round-robin format, with eight players/teams divided into two groups of four and each player/team in a group playing the other three in the group. The eight seeds were determined by the Pepperstone ATP rankings and ATP Doubles Team Rankings on the Monday after the last ATP Tour tournament of the calendar year. All singles matches, including the final, were best of three sets with tie-breaks in each set including the third. All doubles matches were two sets (no ad) and a Match Tie-break.[2]

In deciding placement within a group, the following criteria were used, in order:[2]

  1. Most wins.
  2. Most matches played (e.g., a 2–1 record beats a 2–0 record).
  3. Head-to-head result between tied players/teams.
  4. Highest percentage of sets won.
  5. Highest percentage of games won.
  6. ATP rank after the last ATP Tour tournament of the year.

Criteria 4–6 were used only in the event of a three-way tie; if one of these criteria decided a winner or loser among the three, the remaining two would have been ranked by head-to-head result.

The top two of each group advanced to semifinals, with the winner of each group playing the runner-up of the other group. The winners of the semifinals then played for the title.

Qualification edit

Singles edit

Eight players compete at the tournament, with two named alternates. Players receive places in the following order of precedence:[3]

  1. First, the top 7 players in the ATP Race to Turin on the Monday after the final tournament of the ATP Tour. In 2022, the final tournament was Paris Masters.
  2. Second, up to two 2022 Grand Slam tournament winners ranked anywhere 8th–20th, in ranking order
  3. Third, the eighth ranked player in the ATP rankings

In the event of this totaling more than 8 players, those lower down in the selection order become the alternates. If further alternates are needed, these players are selected by the ATP.

Provisional rankings are published weekly as the ATP Race to Turin, coinciding with the 52-week rolling ATP rankings on the date of selection.[4] Points are accumulated in Grand Slam, ATP Tour, ATP Cup, ATP Challenger Tour and ITF Tour tournaments. Players accrue points across 19 tournaments, usually made up of:

  • The 4 Grand Slam tournaments
  • The 8 mandatory ATP Masters 1000 tournaments
  • The best results from any 7 other tournaments that carry ranking points (ATP Cup, Monte-Carlo Masters, ATP 500, ATP 250, Challenger, ITF)

Doubles edit

Eight teams compete at the tournament, with one named alternate. The eight competing teams receive places according to the same order of precedence as in singles. The named alternate will be offered first to any unaccepted teams in the selection order, then to the highest ranked unaccepted team, and then to a team selected by the ATP. Points are accumulated in the same competitions as for the singles tournament. However, for Doubles teams there are no commitment tournaments, so teams are ranked according to their 19 highest points scoring results from any tournaments on the ATP Tour.[3]

Notes

  1. ^ The Shanghai Masters was cancelled due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in mainland China.[24]
  2. ^ As of 20 May 2022, the ATP announced that no ranking points will be awarded at the 2022 Wimbledon Championships due to the ban on Russian and Belarusian players.[25]
  3. ^ Monte Carlo is not a mandatory Masters, so a player can use his next best result instead. Ranking points are shown in italics in this case.
  4. ^ a b As of 1 March 2022, the ATP announced that players from Russia and Belarus will not compete under the name or flag of Russia or Belarus due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[26]
  5. ^ Djokovic initially qualified for the ATP Finals as a Grand Slam champion ranked in the top 20 after the Paris Masters, but he subsequently earned a direct qualification spot by reaching the Paris Masters semifinal.[4]
  6. ^ Rune's ranking at the time did not qualify him for the main draw in Miami, Madrid or Rome, so he can substitute his next best results for those tournaments. Ranking points are shown in italics in this case.
