After the final match of the ATP Tour season, Catherine David & Matt are joined by Charlie Eccleshare in Turin to discuss the latest edition of the Sinneraz rivalry, and another astonishing ATP Finals title for Jannik Sinner, who is now undefeated on indoor hard courts for two full seasons.

Part One 00:00 - In depth analysis of Sinner's straight sets win over Alcaraz in front of a giddy Italian crowd. What makes Sinner so good on an indoor court, how big an impact has his new-found variety had on his match up with Alcaraz? And how worried should we be about Alcaraz's hamstring injury that seemed to plague him in the second half of the match?

There's also discussion of the rivalry in general, where it goes from here and whether men's tennis is precariously reliant on its two biggest superstars.

Part Two 54:33 - The team discuss a doubles title for Harri Heliövaara and Henry Patten, beating Neal Skupski and Joe Salisbury in the final, as well as a dominant showing generally for British doubles players at the year-end finals.

There's also a deep dive on the comments from ATP CEO Andrea Gaudenzi in Turin this week, defending his controversial move to extend 1000 events to 12 days in length.

Plus there's a look ahead to the week ahead at the Davis Cup Finals in Bologna, where Matt will be reporting from on-site.
