Zverev Seeks Third Turin Crown

Zverev enters his ninth appearance in the year-end championship aiming for his third tournament title. The German previously won the event in 2018 and 2021. Last season ended in the round-robin stage following group-stage losses to Jannik Sinner and Félix Auger-Aliassime.

Jódar Makes Historic Debut

Jódar qualified for the season finale during his first professional campaign, traveling to Italy alongside fellow countryman Carlos Alcaraz. The 20-year-old Spaniard enters the tournament with 45 match wins and one title secured in Marrakech earlier this year.

Jódar earned his spot in the 2026 field following an injury withdrawal by Sinner. He enters the event ranked No. 9, joining a small group of competitors outside the traditional top eight to contest the year-end tournament. David Nalbandian stands as the most prominent precedent, winning the 2005 title from the No. 11 ranking position after entering the draw following multiple withdrawals.
