Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner are putting the final touches on their preparations for the ATP Finals in Turin. The world's best players will lead two groups at the elite ATP event, hoping to arrange another thrilling final on the big scene.
They will also embrace the year-end no. 1 battle. However, before that, Carlos and Jannik, modern icons of the new generation, will share the practice court in Turin, making it the one to watch!
The world's best players will hit the Sebastopoli Court at 11:00 local time before to Centre Court from noon. Thus, they will continue their growing tradition of respect and sportsmanship that has marked their rivalry.
Although they are fiercely competitive during matches, they are not afraid of training together. Sinner and Alcaraz have pushed each other to higher levels while drawing mutual admiration across the tennis world.

They have met five times on the big scene this year between May and September, with Carlos winning four of their five finals. They have not lost the title while entering the same draw since May last year.
That streak will likely continue, with the Italian standing as the clear favorite in Turin. On the other hand, the Spaniard is motivated to present his A-game and make a name for himself at the event where he only has one semi-final.
The stakes in Turin could not be higher. Carlos stands 1050 ATP points advantage over Jannik in the year-end no. 1 battle, requiring three wins to defend the position and finish the season at the top for the second time at 22.
On the other hand, Sinner will likely chase all five victories, as he did a year ago, entering the tournament with the Paris Masters title by his name and a 26-match winning streak on an indoor court.
