thanks Wolf - do the matches start with P1 v P4 in each group? Or more random?

If anyone interested theyve got practice court live streams all day on all 4 courts available - www.nittoatpfinals.com/en/news/nitto-atp-finals-2025-practice-court-streaming

Theres a schedule in the text showing who is on when. Julian and Lloyd are on at the moment, for example, on court 2

Someone in the Harri blog this week comments that Harrison and King are splitting

www.harriheliovaara.fi/2025/11/07/torino-atp-finals-kauden-huipennus-edessa/

Not seen that anywhere else, anyone know anything about that?

The way the comment is written, translated from Finnish, implies that maybe the split causes a knock on effect - not sure if any other pairs splitting, including British ones, at all? Maybe Harrison and King are partnering with one of the other Brits next year (Joe, Neal, Luke? Can't imagine Henry or Lloyd/Julian, or Jamie)

Starts today, Julian and Lloyd are due in at 5 pm our time, per Wolf above.

playing the Italian pair in an evening session should make it a good atmosphere.

That wasnt in the script.

Time to turn it around but still. Granollers and Zeballos won the other and so C and G play the Germans on Tuesday. Thats a must win match now.

Excellent, good to see them win. The other guys have had an injury (Pavic?) though, so not sure they are 100% match fit, but a win we will take!!

In singles theyve ended up with 1 match in each group on each day - presumably due to Musetti being engaged late in Athens by Djokovic. Will they somehow bring it back to one group one day, etc, or keep it with a match from each group - and therefore some players playing consecutive days?

Whether they bring it back to one group each day or not, assuming having 2 singles matches each day, someone is now going to have to play on successive days during the group stage. So I imagine they will bring it back to whole of each group each day.

That's true, you are right! Presumably the players playing this afternoon will have their group brought back tomorrow then - otherwise someone from this evening will be straight on tomorrow afternoon and that would probably be unfair

From the highlights, Neal and Joe looked solid and Neal's volleying was v sharp. They seemed less powerful than the opponents but more precise and more consistent and this seemed to work for them.

Louis Cayer was there and he has lots to get his teeth into this week, virtually every match in doubles (8 out of 12 in the groups) will feature a Brit!!

First set 6-4 to H and H.
