ATP Finals 2024: Sinner, Alcaraz drawn in different groups
Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, who split the four Slams this year, have been placed in opposite groups for the ATP Finals, set to be held in Turin from November 10 to 17.
World No. 1 Sinner, who won the Australian Open and the US Open, is in the ‘Ilie Nastase Group’ along with former champion Daniil Medvedev, US Open runner-up Taylor Fritz and tournament debutant Alex de Minaur of Australia.
