Auger-Aliassime moves to the brink of Turin qualification
With just six days to go until the Nitto ATP Finals, there is only one more qualification spot up for grabs. ATPTour.com looks at the movers of the week as of Monday 3 November, following the Rolex Paris Masters.
Felix Auger-Aliassime – eighth (3,845 points)
The Canadian has surged into the final qualification spot in the PIF ATP Live Race To Turin after he reached the final in Paris. The 25-year-old earned three comeback victories in the French capital and defeated Valentin Vacherot and Alexander Bublik to advance to his second ATP Masters 1000 final. He lost to Jannik Sinner in the title match.
Lorenzo Musetti – ninth (3,685)
Musetti must win the title at the ATP 250 event in Athens if he is to qualify for the year-end event for the first time. Should 23-year-old Musetti join new World No. 1 Sinner in Turin, it will be the first time that two Italians have qualified for the season finale, which this year offers more than $5 million to an undefeated champion. Musetti will face Stan Wawrinka or Botic van de Zandschulp in his opener.
Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Novak Djokovic, Alexander Zverev, Taylor Fritz, Ben Shelton and Alex de Minaur have qualified for the Nitto ATP Finals, taking place from 9-16 November at Inalpi Arena in Turin.
