Novak Djokovic will soon be knocked off his ATP World Tour Finals perch, as the record seven-time winner has withdrawn from this year's tournament, leaving eight fierce competitors to fight for the year-end crown.
With Djokovic pulling out of the competition after a rare year without a single major success, the 2024 tournament will mark the first time since 2001 that none of the Serbian, Rafael Nadal or Roger Federer has battled for ATP Finals supremacy.
Jannik Sinner - who was put to the sword by Djokovic in last year's championship match - has already secured the year-end world number one ranking heading into the 2024 edition, but the Italian trailblazer has an intense battle on his hands to cap off a wonderful year with the coveted trophy.
Here, Sports Mole provides an in-depth guide to the 2024 ATP Finals, from TV and streaming options to all the past winners.

The eight-strong field is headlined by world number one Sinner - this year's Australian Open and US Open champion - and Carlos Alcaraz, who conquered Wimbledon and the French Open for two major triumphs of his own.
However, Alcaraz is only seeded third behind Alexander Zverev, his opponent in the Roland-Garros showpiece, who has won this tournament twice before in 2018 and 2021 and is fresh from his victory at the Paris Masters.
Another former champion Daniil Medvedev - who won the competition in 2020 - is seeded fourth, while Taylor Fritz is seeded fifth and bids to go at least one better than his run to the semi-finals in 2022.
Completing the 2024 field is four-time participant Andrey Rublev, Casper Ruud - who lost to Djokovic in the final of the 2022 tournament - and debutant Alex de Minaur, the first Australian to play at the ATP Finals singles competition since Lleyton Hewitt in 2004.
Grigor Dimitrov - winner in 2017 - and 2019 champion Stefanos Tsitsipas are this year's alternates.
When is the 2024 ATP Finals draw? What is the tournament format?
The draw for the ATP Finals round-robin stage will take place on Thursday, November 7 at 11am UK time, although top seed Sinner has already been allocated to the Green Group, while Zverev is in the Red Group.
In honour of the very first number ones in the ATP Rankings, this year's groups have been named the Ilie Nastase Group and the John Newcombe Group; the former topped the inaugural rankings in 1973 and the latter in 1974.
The other six competitors will wait to learn which group of four they will be drawn into, and the top two in each section will progress to the semi-finals; each player plays each other once in the two groups.
If two players are tied on wins, the tie-breaker will be their head-to-head record, and if three players cannot be separated, their percentage of sets won comes into play, as well as their percentage of victorious games if need be.
