Thiem times run to finals perfectly

In a repeat of the final last year, Dominic Thiem will meet Stefanos Tsitsipas on Day 1 of the ATP Finals.

Rafa Nadal will headline the evening match against young Russian Andrey Rublev.

Tomorrow’s matches see World No.1 Novak Djokovic face Diego Schwartzman and Daniil Medvedev up against Alexander Zverev.

Djokovic, who has not won the London event since 2015, is looking to end his season on a high.

“Coming into the tournament and knowing that I have clinched the year-end No. 1 releases some of the pressure, definitely,” he said.

“But, at the same time, it doesn’t change what I hope to achieve in this tournament and why I’m here.

“I really want to win every single match that I play and try to get my hands on the trophy and I want this trophy as much as anybody.”
