Daniil Medvedev vs Taylor Fritz head-to-head record

The draw for the group stage of the 2024 ATP Finals threw up the second-ever career match between Daniil Medvedev and Taylor Fritz. Prior to their tussle in Turin, the pair had only met at the 2022 ATP Masters 1,000 Cincinnati when Medvedev won 7-6, 6-3 in the quarter-final.

Jannik Sinner vs Alex de Minaur head-to-head record

Sinner and De Minaur are no strangers ahead of their day one tie at the 2024 ATP Finals. It is technically the ninth career meeting between the Italian and Australian on the ATP Tour. But De Minaur has never beaten Sinner on a court, so will now aim to upset the home favourite.

The only time that De Minaur has progressed in a tournament in which he was scheduled to play Sinner was the 2023 ATP Masters 1,000 Paris. But he only progressed from the round of 16 as the Italian withdrew over insufficient recovery time after facing Mackenzie McDonald.

Sinner withdrew from his clash with De Minaur at the 2023 ATP Masters 1,000 Paris planned for a 17:00 start time having started his match with McDonald just after midnight and it only finished at 02:37. Now, De Minaur goes for a first on-court win over Sinner at the ATP Finals.
