Carlos Alcaraz v Taylor Fritz head-to-headThis will be Alcaraz and Fritz’s fourth meeting this season, in what has been a busy autumn for their rivalry. After Alcaraz’s win in the Wimbledon semi-finals, Fritz notched his first ever win against the Spaniard at the Laver Cup. Alcaraz beat Fritz in Tokyo to win the Japan Open and added an exhibition victory at the Six Kings Slam. Alcaraz is 4-1 ahead in the head-tohead, but Turin’s indoor conditions may suit Fritz. Jamie Braidwood11/11/2025 12:30 How Alcaraz could keep World No. 1Alcaraz, who is attempting his first ATP Finals win, entered the tournament as a second-round loser to Cameron Norrie. That result allowed Jannik Sinner the opportunity to reclaim No. 1 and Alcaraz was able to keep that position by gaining at least 500 ranking point from the event. This can be achieved by winning the three round-robin games, or winning at least one round-robin match and winning both his semi-final. Alcaraz started his week by beating Alex de Minaur 7-6 6-2, so he only needs two more victories.
