Djokovic was one of the best players of the year despite what his current ranking shows. The Serbian is no longer the World’s N°1 because he didn’t play in Grand Slams where he was defending a lot of points from the previous season. But in this ATP Finals he has been the best so far, arriving to this game undefeated after four wins. Although it’s worth mentioning that he got through Taylor Fritz after two fought tiebreaks.
Ruud continues to establish himself as a solid player thanks to his consistency. In this tournament he only needed the first two matchups to advance to the semifinals. Those two victories meant his loss with Rafael Nadal was meaningless. But he got to the final after his best performance in the event against a tough opponent. The Norwegian is also fresh following an easy 6-2; 6-4 triumph over Andrey Rublev.
