Jannik Sinner is trying to end an eventful season in the perfect fashion as he returns to home soil as favourite for his first ATP Finals title.

World number one Jannik Sinner said the ATP Finals will be more special for him this time around as it gives him the chance to play on home soil in Italy, months after missing this year's Italian Open in Rome due to a hip injury.

The 24-time Grand Slam champion is not present at this year’s ATP Finals, having cited an injury as justification for his absence. Sinner will have to be especially careful with Alexander Zverev, who is very well in indoor conditions thanks to his excellent serve and has just won the Rolex Paris Masters.
