–

The top 10 are preparing for the ATP finals in Turin.

But a lot of other good players are trying to finish off their 2023 seasons in style – including Alex de Minaur, Stan Wawrinka, Lorenzo Musetti and Adrian Mannarino.

The alternates spot in doubles in Turin (which is well-remunerated) may still be in play as well, even if the singles was settled and, as a result, a lot of players pulled out of this final week.

(Metz is six hours ahead of EST; Sofia is seven hours ahead).
