The X account Jeu, Set et Maths took advantage of the start of the ATP Finals this Sunday to release statistics on the players participating in the tournament in Turin during this 2025 season, which is about to end.
Among them is a statistic on their record in decisive sets. The leader of this ranking is Carlos Alcaraz, with a win rate of 78.9% (15 wins for 4 losses) in matches that went to 5 sets or 3 sets in a best-of-3 sets format.
