Zverev victory at ATP Finals confirms Nadal exit

LONDON: Rafael Nadal headed home from the ATP Finals on Friday after defending champion Alexander Zverev’s win against Daniil Medvedev confirmed the Spaniard’s exit from the season-ending tournament.

Tsitsipas, who topped the group, will play six-time champion Roger Federer in Saturday’s semi-finals while Zverev will meet Dominic Thiem, who finished ahead of Federer in Group Bjorn Borg. The pair swapped mini-breaks but Medvedev double-faulted to give Zverev a 5-3 lead and the German held his nerve to seal his first match point with an ace.

Nadal, who has already secured the year-end number one ranking, has never won the end-of-season tournament and had a miserable start at the O2 Arena, being outplayed by Zverev in his opening match.
