A ruthless Novak Djokovic destroyed home favourite Jannik Sinner to claim a record-breaking seventh ATP Finals title. After a peerless performance, the 36-year-old now stands alone with a record seven crowns at the season finale.
The Serbian was at his very best in a 6-3, 6-3 win against the Italian, losing just two points in his first seven service games to surge ahead and then expertly navigating a tense close to the one-hour, 43-minute match.
The Serbian's latest triumph saw him break his tie with Roger Federer for most victories in the season-ending event.
Having struggled to handle Sinner’s serve in their group meeting, Djokovic looked far sharper on this occasion.
The crowd tried their best to energise their man but Djokovic moved on towards victory and a Sinner double fault ended the contest. Djokovic moves past Roger Federer to stand alone as the most successful player in the tournament's history.
His win concludes an individual season in which he won three of the four Grand Slam titles and seized back the world number one spot from Carlos Alcaraz and worryingly for the chasing pack he will head into 2024 looking as dominant as ever.
In the doubles final, Britain's Joe Salisbury partnered Rajeev Ram and retained their titles against Horacio Zeballos and Marcel Granollers.
