The 2026 ATP Finals will take place from November 15 to November 22 at the Inalpi Arena in Turin, Italy. This season-ending tournament features the year’s top eight singles players and doubles teams competing for the final major title of the circuit.
Matches Follow a Round-Robin Format from November 15
The event follows a distinct round-robin format, setting it apart from standard ATP tour tournaments. Participants are divided into two groups of four, where each player or team faces every other opponent in their group. Matches are scheduled daily from November 15 through November 22 with morning and evening sessions.
Each session typically features one doubles match followed by one singles match, with play starting at 11:30 AM local time and the evening session beginning at 6:00 PM. The semifinals are set for Saturday, November 21, starting at 12:00 PM for the first doubles match, with the final matches for both categories occurring on Sunday, November 22, DAZN reported.
