It has been a long and exciting tennis season, and now it all comes down to one match. World No. 1 Jannik Sinner faces No. 5 Taylor Fritz in the title match of the ATP Finals on Sunday afternoon in Turin, Italy. It is the second time the two players are meeting in this tournament.

It has been a breakout season for Sinner, who bookmarked the year with wins at the Australian Open and US Open. However, he has also been dogged by doping controversy since August. Meanwhile, Fritz is looking to cap off the best year of his career.
