In the final, Novak will fight with the representative of Italy Lorenzo Musetti (ATP 9). Musetti defeated Sebastian Corda (USA, ATP 52) in his semi-final match by serving a match point in the 10th game of the third game.
Lorenzo will make his eighth career Tour-level final and first since 2022. The Italian lost the previous five finals.
The final in Athens will take place on November 8 and will start approximately at 17:00 Kyiv time. In personal meetings, Djokovic’s advantage is 8:1.
If Musetti wins the trophy, he qualifies for the Final ATP tournament, which starts on the 9th. If Lorenzo concedes, Felix Auger-Alassime will play in Turin. However, Djokovic himself has not yet confirmed his participation in the ATP Finals – in the event of the Serb’s refusal, both Musetti and Auger will perform at the Finals.
