- Updated: November 14, 2020
When the Nitto ATP Finals competitors pose for the official group portrait at The O2 in London, you know the action is near.
The eight singles players competing at the 2020 Nitto ATP Finals gathered on Friday for an official group portrait at The O2 in London. In addition, players took part in a special tribute photo, thanking the NHS and all key workers. The tournament will be played 15-22 November.
The singles players were split into two groups on Thursday. World No. 1 Novak Djokovic leads Group Tokyo 1970, which also includes Daniil Medvedev, Alexander Zverev and Diego Schwartzman. World No. 2 Rafael Nadal tops Group London 2020 alongside Dominic Thiem, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Andrey Rublev.
The players participated in Media Day Friday, speaking to reporters and broadcasters before the season finale. Here is what some of the players said…
Rafael Nadal
“The atmosphere in this amazing stadium, the organisation has been great, the event has been very popular around the world. I think the ATP did a great job choosing The O2, choosing London and creating a fantastic event for so many years.”
Dominic Thiem
“The guy who has the better day is going to win and the guy who has the most good days is going to end up winning the tournament. The only thing I’m going to try to do is to be there 100 per cent and to be there completely ready on Sunday afternoon [for my first match].”
About
The Nitto ATP Finals
The Nitto ATP Finals is the year-end climax to the men’s professional tennis
season, featuring only the world’s best eight qualified singles players and
doubles teams as they battle it out for the last title of the season. Players
compete for FedEx ATP Rankings points throughout the season in a bid to earn
one of the eight coveted berths and a chance to win the biggest indoor tennis
tournament in the world. Played using a round-robin format, each player plays
three matches as they compete for a berth in the knockout semi-finals and
beyond. The prestigious tournament has been contested in major cities around
the world with a rich history dating back to the birth of The Masters in 1970
in Tokyo. Since 2000 the event has taken place in cities such as Lisbon, Sydney,
and Shanghai. In 2009 the tournament was moved to London, where it will be
played through to 2020 before moving to Turin in 2021. For more
