Wins for Thiem, over Nadal, and win for  Tsitsipas mean Thiem is going to be top of group.

Salisbury lost in the doubles, including a bagel in the second set.wonder if an injury was involved.

Medvedev beats Djokovic and will top group. Zverev beats Schwatzmann in a pretty awful match, and plays Djokovic tomorrow for a place in the semifinals.

Thinking about this, it means that the ATP Cup cannot take place but not seen anything saying that explicitly

Thiem having beaten both Nadal and Tsitsipas then loses to Rublev who they both beat. IIRC something similar happened last year with Berrettini. Nadal beats Tsitsipas to qualify for the semi final.

Salisbury and his partner, Ram, make the semi finals.

Thiem and Medvedev into final. Both of them having beaten Djokovic and Nadal in the last few days.


Salisbury out of the doubles.


Granollers and Zeballos seemed to come to an arrangement in the last group doubles match with Melzer and Roger -Vasselin to retire at a score that put both of them into the semi finals. Hmmmmm...

Great win for Medvedev. Excellent match. Needs to win a slam but looks ready to do. Beat the 3 top seeds in the year end.


Federer finishes year ranked 5th.

So in the Battle of Brits Watson and Matusevich win though not everyone played all the matches. Big win by Matusevich over Draper in the battle of the young Brits
