Jannik Sinner joins Carlos Alcaraz in qualifying for 2025 ATP Finals
2025 will be Sinner's fourth appearance at the competition. He won the 2024 edition of the tournament, defeating American Taylor Fritz 6-4, 6-4 in the final to take home the title. He also competed in the 2023 final, although he fell to a 6-3, 6-3 defeat against Novak Djokovic.

Chennai Grandmasters Day 4: Erigaisi Passes Up Chance To Capitalise On Keymer Draw
Last Updated: Nihal Sarin stunned Arjun Erigaisi to pick up his first win of the day as Vincent Keymer held on to his lead despite being held to a draw by Anish Giri. Arjun Erigaisi failed to take advantage of Vincen Keymer's draw against Anish Giri as the Indian went down to compatriot Nihal Sarin, who picked up his first win of the Chess Grandmasters 2025 on Day 4 of the event on Sunday. Erigaisi, who began the day half a point behind the German leader, had the chance to go on level with Keymer in the Masters category; however, Sarin rained on Erigaisi's party as the youngster pulled off the biggest surprise of the event yet as he handed Erigaisi his first defeat of the series. As a result, Keymer still stands alone on top of the roster with three and a half points to his name after the conclusion of four games in the nine-match round robin event, while Arjun stands at two and a half. Robson took his tally to two points, as did Giri, Awonder and Gujrathi. Karthikeyan's win took him on level with points while Pranav took his tally to a point and a half, mimicking Sarin's count. The all-American clash between Liang Awoder and Ray Robson finished up with the overseas players splitting the points two ways, as did the all-Indian pairing of Pranav V and Vidit Gujrathi. Karthikeyan Murali also registered a win over Dutchman Jorden Van Foreest to take his tally to two points in twice as many fixtures. Abhimanyu Purnik's winning run in the Challengers section continued as he got the beating of Vaishali, as Harika Dronavalli's disappointing run continued as she slumped to her third defeat in four games, as Leon Luke Mendoca outwitted the seasoned campaigner. Iniyan Pa beat Aryan Chopra, while Diptayan Ghosh pulled out all the stops to edge out Harshavardhan GB. The only challenger game that ended in a draw was the fixture between Adhiban B and Pranesh M, as the duo shared the spoils.
