"Over the past four years, Italy has shown itself as an incredible host of our most prestigious event, with the vision to create a truly special experience for both players and fans," ATP Chairman Andrea Gaudenzi said.

FITP President Angelo Binaghi added, "Tennis has a special place in the history and culture of this country. The ATP Finals are treasured by Italian fans, and this connection is now stronger than ever with Jannik Sinner as the World No.1. We look ahead with excitement, confident in the knowledge that this event will continue to grow even stronger in the years ahead"
