October 8, 2013

By Jon Crim TennisCompanion

It’s that time of year again. With the Grand Slam season having come to a close and today marking the first day of fall, we’re well on our way to wrapping up the 2013 tennis season.

However, no season would be complete without the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals, which this year will be held from November 4th-11th at the 02 Arena located in London, England.

ATP World Tour Finals Format

If you’re not familiar, the ATP World Tour Finals operates under a slightly different format than the typical single elimination of an ATP event. For starters, the only qualifiers for the tournament are the top eight ranked singles players and top eight ranked doubles teams on the Monday after the regular season following the ATP World Tour Masters 1000 tournament in Paris.

From there, the top eight singles players and doubles teams are split into two groups where they’ll play a round-robin against the other three in the group. The best two from each group progress through to the semi-finals, and the winners reach the finals.

Its unique format and a small selection of only the best men’s tennis players make for an exciting year-end tournament, which you should make time to watch if you get the chance.

Approximately two weeks before the tournament, you can check out the TV schedule for the year-end finale to make sure you catch all the action. You’ll also be able to check out the draws and schedule of play on the ATP website.

As for the ATP World Tour prize money, they’ll be no shortage of cash, helping ensure a high level of competition. This year there is a sizable purse of $6,000,000, one of the biggest of the year, which incidentally is equal to that of the year-end WTA Championships that will be held in Istanbul, Turkey this year.

Current Singles ATP World Tour Qualifiers

As of now, three players have their spot locked for the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals. Rafael Nadal, coming off his US Open victory in Flushing Meadows, NY, and currently ranked #2 in the world, has his spot.

Novak Djokovic, this year’s Australian Open champion and current world #1 have also qualified for the tournament. Finally, after reaching the quarters of the US Open, Andy Murray became the third men’s singles tennis player to qualify for the tournament.

However, with news of Andy Murray’s back surgery, he will likely be forced to withdraw from the tournament, opening up additional space for another player.

As of September 16, 2013, here are the top 20 singles players currently making their bid to qualify for the world tour finals:

Rafael Nadal booked his place in the semi-finals of the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals and secured the year-end number one ranking with a hard-fought victory over Stanislas Wawrinka at London's O2 Arena.

Novak Djokovic had kept the ranking race alive going into season-ending tournament with a run of 17 straight victories but Nadal still knew two wins in London would be enough to give him the honour for the third time.

It is a remarkable achievement given Nadal did not play a tournament until February after seven months out with knee problems.

Many questioned whether the Spaniard would be able to hit the same heights but he has put together one of the best years in tennis history, winning 10 of his first 13 tournaments.

He has found the going a bit tougher since winning his 13th grand slam title at the US Open but was an easy winner over David Ferrer in his opening round-robin match.

That meant a straight-sets win over O2 debutant Wawrinka would send him through to the semi-finals, and the omens were good given he had won all 24 of their previous sets.

Wawrinka has come close to breaking that run on a few occasions, including in Shanghai last month, when he had a point to win the opening set.

It was a similar story here but once more it was Nadal who prevailed, this time in two tie-breaks, to win 7-6 (7/5) 7-6 (8/6).

Nadal was rock solid to start with, not making a single unforced error in the opening seven games and breaking Wawrinka to lead 3-2 when the Swiss double-faulted.

But Wawrinka has had the best season of his life and he continued to take the fight to Nadal, earning his reward when the top seed served for the set at 5-4.

Nadal picked up a code violation for taking too long between points and Wawrinka finally managed to breach his defences.

Nadal was on the defensive again in the tie-break but, as he has so often done in his career, kept the ball coming back over the net and a stumble from Wawrinka as he came into the net on set point proved his undoing.

It was no wonder the 28-year-old was frustrated and he smashed his racket three times before flinging it angrily away.

The second set began in a similar fashion, Wawrinka unable to take his chances while Nadal seized his to lead 4-1.

Back came Wawrinka, though, finally taking a break point with a volley that caught the top of the net but landed in.

Another tie-break would decide the set and Wawrinka had a chance to level up after fighting back from 4-1 down.

But Nadal saved the set point expertly and two errors from Wawrinka settled the match in the Spaniard's favour, even though he won three fewer points.

Wawrinka, who beat Tomas Berdych in his opening match, is still in a decent position to reach the last four ahead of his final group clash with Ferrer on Friday.
