Look ahead to day two of the 2024 ATP Finals with The Tennis Gazette, as we look at the full order of play and how to watch with Carlos Alcaraz one of the stars in action.
After the Ilie Nastase Group kicked off the ATP Finals on Sunday with Daniil Medvedev facing Taylor Fritz plus Jannik Sinner taking on Alex de Minaur, attention now moves on to the John Newcombe Group. Alcaraz plus Alexander Zverev and Andrey Rublev will all go on the court.
Alcaraz will look to begin his quest for a first ATP Finals title with a win over Casper Ruud on Monday. Rublev is also aiming to conquer the ATP Tour year-ending tournament for the first time in 2024. But the Russian kicks off his quest against two-time ATP Finals winner, Zverev.
Zverev is one of only two past ATP Finals champions looking to win the 2024 edition in Turin, Italy with Medvedev. The German beat Novak Djokovic in the final in 2018 and Medvedev in the 2021 final. Reigning champion Djokovic withdrew from the 2024 ATP Finals due to injury.

Unlike Alcaraz and Rublev, Ruud has previously made a final at the ATP Finals back in 2022 when he lost to Djokovic. But the Norwegian flew to Turin on the back of losing to Benjamin Bonzi in the last 16 at the Moselle Open. Zverev won the Paris Masters when he last played.
So, with that in mind, The Tennis Gazette takes a look at the full order of play for day two of the 2024 ATP Finals and how fans in America can watch every match from Turin live on TV…

Carlos Alcaraz vs Casper Ruud head-to-head record
The draw for the 2024 ATP Finals threw up the fifth career match between Alcaraz and Ruud for the opening game in the John Newcombe Group. Ruud will hope Alcaraz being yet to win a title or reach a final at an indoor tournament helps him to overcome a substandard record.

Alexander Zverev vs Andrey Rublev head-to-head record
Zverev and Rublev meet for the 10th time on the ATP Tour for their opening game at the ATP Finals in 2024. They have both taken wins against one another, with World No2 Zverev so far on top in their head-to-head record with six wins to three against World No9 Rublev to date.
It is also the second straight year in which Zverev and Rublev meet in the group stage of the ATP Finals after the former picked up a victory in their last tie of the 2023 round-robin stage. But his victory was still not enough for Zverev to then advance into the semi-finals last year.
