Carlos Alcaraz has booked his place at the Nitto ATP Finals, the season-ending championship, for a fifth consecutive year, having compiled a 26-4 record this season and lifted the Australian Open title. That triumph in 2026 completed the Spaniard's set of all four Grand Slam crowns, although his run at the US Open ended in the quarter-finals, where he lost to Ben Shelton in a deciding tie-break after suffering a wrist injury. Tellingly, reports on his Turin record are contradictory: official figures list this as his fifth qualification, while technical records count it as only his fourth appearance. Either way, Alcaraz will now join Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev, who have already qualified, at Turin's Inalpi Arena. "The moment I step on court, everything else fades away. The main thing is to enjoy the moment," Alcaraz said of his mindset on court.
