I'm sure a certain part of it is just natural improvement along a development curve, but the level of play of Opelka, Fritz, Tiafoe, and Paul all peaked in 2021, and mostly did so in the second half of the season after the early rise of Korda, and the later rising of both Brooksby and Nakashima...
The NextGen ATP Finals field is set, Hugo Gaston punching the last ticket. Looks like the Italian federation waived their wild card this year and took the standard top 8 available. So, who wins this competition?
