## Format and field
The Nitto ATP Finals uses a round-robin format with eight players divided into two groups of four, and all singles matches are the best of three tie-break sets, including the final.[7](https://www.nittoatpfinals.com/en/event/rules-and-format) The 2023 Green Group contained Novak Djokovic, Jannik Sinner, Stefanos Tsitsipas, and [Holger Rune](https://www.edgepedia.org/holger-rune); the Red Group contained [Carlos Alcaraz](https://www.edgepedia.org/carlos-alcaraz), Daniil Medvedev, Andrey Rublev, and [Alexander Zverev](https://www.edgepedia.org/alexander-zverev).[2](https://www.nittoatpfinals.com/en/heritage/results-2000-2023)
Tsitsipas withdrew during the group stage after losing his first two matches, and alternate [Hubert Hurkacz](https://www.edgepedia.org/hubert-hurkacz) replaced him, losing his single round-robin match to Djokovic 7-6(1), 4-6, 1-6.[2](https://www.nittoatpfinals.com/en/heritage/results-2000-2023)
The total prize fund of $15 million was a record for the event, and, as in 2022, three individual matches at the tournament were worth more than $1 million.[3](https://www.nittoatpfinals.com/en/news/nitto-atp-finals-2023-record-prize-money)
## Round robin
The defining group-stage match came on 14 November, when Sinner beat Djokovic 7-5, 6-7(5), 7-6(2) in 3 hours 9 minutes, his first Lexus ATP Head2Head win in four attempts against the Serbian. The victory put Sinner 2-0 in the Green Group and improved his indoor record for 2023 to 15-1.[6](https://www.nittoatpfinals.com/en/news/djokovic-sinner-turin-2023-tuesday) Sinner closed his group with a 6-2, 5-7, 6-4 win over Rune, while Djokovic kept his semi-final hopes alive by beating Hurkacz.[2](https://www.nittoatpfinals.com/en/heritage/results-2000-2023)
In the Red Group, Zverev opened with a 6-7(3), 6-3, 6-4 win over Alcaraz, and Medvedev beat both Rublev and Zverev. Alcaraz recovered with wins over Rublev (7-5, 6-2) and Medvedev (6-4, 6-4) to reach the semi-finals, while Zverev's win over Rublev left him at 2-1 but out of the knockout stage on standing.[2](https://www.nittoatpfinals.com/en/heritage/results-2000-2023)
## Knockout stage
In the semi-finals, Sinner beat Medvedev 6-3, 6-7(4), 6-1, and Djokovic defeated Alcaraz 6-3, 6-2 to reach a record-deciding final.[2](https://www.nittoatpfinals.com/en/heritage/results-2000-2023) • [8](https://www.atptour.com/en/news/djokovic-alcaraz-turin-2023-saturday-sf)
The final on 19 November reversed the group-stage result. Djokovic won 6-3, 6-3, five days after Sinner had edged him in the round robin, a turnaround Djokovic had also achieved against [Roger Federer](https://www.edgepedia.org/roger-federer) at the 2015 season finale.[1](https://www.atptour.com/en/news/djokovic-sinner-turin-2023) He adjusted his tactics between the two meetings: after hitting more backhands than forehands against Sinner in the group stage, he flipped that pattern in the final, using his forehand to attack Sinner's baseline game.[9](https://www.atptour.com/en/news/brain-game-turin-2023-djokovic-sinner?dm_i=75TZ%2CKANB%2CS72EO%2C2LR7I%2C1) The Guardian reported that Djokovic trailed 15-40 and 0-30 in consecutive service games late in the second set before closing out the match.[10](https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2023/nov/19/novak-djokovic-claims-seventh-atp-finals-title-with-demolition-of-sinner)
## Records and prize money
The title was Djokovic's seventh at the [ATP Finals](https://www.edgepedia.org/atp-finals), breaking the record he had shared, and at 36 years 181 days he became the tournament's oldest-ever singles winner.[1](https://www.atptour.com/en/news/djokovic-sinner-turin-2023) • [5](https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/63349-most-wins-of-the-singles-atp-world-tour-finals) It was also his 71st "Big Title", the ATP's combination of Grand Slam championships, Nitto ATP Finals trophies, ATP Masters 1000 titles, and Olympic singles gold medals.[11](https://www.atptour.com/en/news/djokovic-nitto-atp-finals-2023-big-titles)
