Zverev wins US Open…and doesn’t realise!!!

The Nitto ATP Finals is structured as a round-robin format, with eight singles players/doubles teams divided into two groups of four.

All singles matches are the best of three tie-break sets. All doubles matches are best of three sets, with the first two sets played as tie-break sets with no ads and the final set played as a match tie-break.

The top seeded player/team is placed in Group A and the second seeded player/team is placed in Group B. The remaining players/teams are then drawn in pairs with the first drawn placed in Group A and the second drawn placed in Group B.

Each player/team plays the three other players/teams in his group.

The winner of each group is placed in separate semi-final brackets, with the top player/team in Group A playing the runner-up in Group B, and vice versa.
