2024 ATP Finals – Singles explained

See main article: 2024 ATP Finals.

Jannik Sinner defeated Taylor Fritz in the final, 6–4, 6–4 to win the singles tennis title at the 2024 ATP Finals. Sinner became the first Italian to win the title, and did not drop a set en route, the first to do so since Ivan Lendl in 1986. He dropped just 33 games to win the title, the fewest in the tournament's history.[1] Fritz became the first American to reach the championship match since James Blake in 2006.[2]

Novak Djokovic was the two-time reigning champion and qualified this year,[3] but withdrew from the tournament due to injury.[4] This marked the first edition of the tournament with none of the Big Three since 2001.[5]

Alex de Minaur made his singles debut at the event.[6]
