The ATP Tour’s regular season concludes in 11 days, yet several crucial stories still unfold in the 2025 tennis calendar. The year-end No. 1 ranking and the 2025 ATP Finals champion remain undecided.
Seven of the eight players for the season-ending ATP Finals in Turin have already qualified, but the last position is still contested.

- Musetti’s points: 3,685
This ranking snapshot comes just before the final tournaments of the regular season scheduled in Athens and Metz.
Recent Developments Affecting the Race
Auger-Aliassime withdrew from the Moselle Open due to a left-knee injury. Meanwhile, Musetti prepares to compete in the inaugural Hellenic Championship, a new ATP 250 event in Athens.
