2022 NITTO ATP FINALS - DAY 8 (LAST) :
"Pala Alpitour", Turin (Italy) :

Singles - Final : Novak Djokovic (7) won his 91st ATP tournament in career (sixth ATP Finals and 17th on hard indoor), defeating
Casper Ruud (3) 7-5, 6-3 after 1h 32' Thumb up

The first set was extremely balanced for the first eleven games, with three break-points canceled in total by Ruud, two in the third game and one in the eighth, but the Norwegian was unable to save his serve in the twelfth game, when the Serbian gained a set-point and immediately closed the partial 7-5 after 52'; in the second set, Nole broke Ruud in the fourth game, going then 4-1 and maintaining the advantage until the final 6-3, closing the match at the first match-point with an ace after
1h 32', winning for the sixth time (this time without losing a match) the title of "Master" (equalling Roger Federer) and becoming the oldest Champion in the history of the ATP Finals, closing the seson at world's N° 5 despite skipping 2 Slams and fourth Masters 1.000 and winning Wimbledon, that this year didn' t give points.
