Zverev Set to Open ATP Finals in Turin
Alexander Zverev opens his 2026 ATP Finals campaign against Rafael Jódar on Sunday at Turin’s Inalpi Arena, with the top-ranked German favored to win their John McEnroe Group match. Zverev has won the tournament twice and beat Jódar in their only previous meeting, a French Open quarterfinal. Jódar, 20, makes his ATP Finals debut after a breakthrough season that included his first ATP Tour title and a rise into the top 10. Zverev’s recent loss at the Paris Masters offers Jódar an opening, while the match could help set the early direction of the group. Ben Shelton and Arthur Fils also meet on the opening day.
