Carlos Alcaraz is one of the favourites to win the 2026 ATP Finals in Turin.
With two-time defending champion Jannik Sinner and record seven-time champion Novak Djokovic both missing this year, Alcaraz will surely fancy his chances of winning the ATP Finals, as will the top seed Alexander Zverev.
Alcaraz is one of the best players to have never won the ATP Finals, but who has lifted the year-end championship trophy this century? Here are the 12 players who have won the tournament since 2000.

Brazil’s Gustavo Kuerten was the first ATP Finals winner of the 2000s, defeating Andre Agassi in Lisbon. Lleyton Hewitt then won the first of his two titles on home soil, beating Sebastien Grosjean in Sydney, before taking down Juan Carlos Ferrero in Shanghai a year later.
When the ATP Finals moved to the United States, Roger Federer won his first two titles, defeating Agassi in 2003 and Hewitt in 2004. David Nalbandian was a surprise winner in Shanghai a year later, before Federer added his third and fourth titles in 2006 and 2007.
Serbian legend Djokovic won his maiden title in 2008, before the ATP Finals left Shanghai and moved to London. Nikolay Davydenko picked up the win in one of the most stacked fields of all time, before Federer won his fifth and sixth titles in 2010 and 2011.
It was in 2010 that Spain’s Rafael Nadal reached his first final at the event. Despite winning 22 Grand Slam titles, Nadal never got his hands on the year-end championships trophy.
Do you believe Novak Djokovic will ever win another ‘big’ tournament?
Novak Djokovic suffered three consecutive second-round exits to end his 2026 season…
Djokovic won four consecutive titles from 2011 to 2015, before Andy Murray became the first home winner of the ATP Finals in 15 years, when he ascended to world number one, with a stunning victory over Djokovic at the O2 Arena.
Federer and Djokovic had shared the last six ATP Finals titles, but after Murray, another four first-time winners followed. Grigor Dimitrov, Alexander Zverev, Stefanos Tsitsipas, and Daniil Medvedev were the last winners of the event in London.
Zverev won his second ATP Finals title when the event moved to Turin, Italy, before Djokovic returned to the peak of his powers. The Serb broke the all-time record, winning in 2022 and 2023, taking his tally to seven.
Italian star Sinner then won in 2024 and 2025, dominating the field. He isn’t fit to defend his title this year, though, opening the door for Alcaraz to potentially win his first ATP Finals title.
