Daniil Medvedev will compete in the Nitto ATP Finals for the sixth consecutive year. The 28-year-old triumphed at the year-end championships in 2020 and reached the championship match in 2021. 

The former No. 1 player in the PIF ATP Rankings made his sixth major final at the Australian Open, defeating back-to-back Top 10 opponents Hubert Hurkacz and Alexander Zverev in five-setters to make his third championship match at Melbourne Park. It is the fourth consecutive season in which he has advanced to the final at a Grand Slam tournament.

That was not the only major success for Medvedev this year. He made the semi-finals at Wimbledon, upsetting top seed Sinner in the quarter-finals before falling short against eventual champion Alcaraz.

The 20-time tour-level titlist also reached the final at the BNP Paribas Open, the ATP Masters 1000 event at Indian Wells.
