Atptour.com looks at the biggest movers in the PIF ATP Live Race to Turin from Monday 8 September.
Felix Auger -Aliassime – 10th (2,705 points), +8
After a strong early season with titles in Adelaide and Montpellier, Auger-Aliassy looked well positioned for a Nitto ATP Finals place. A fragmentary mid -season dim this hope, but his open revival of the US has put him back in the mix.
The 25-year-old Canadian achieved successive victories on the third seed of Alexander Zverev, Andrey Rublev and the Minaur to reach the semi-final, making him only shy for qualifying in the live race.

Novak Djokovic – Third (4,180), +2
Novak Djokovic continued his Ultra-Clean Grand Slam season and continued to a fourth consecutive large semi-final in New York before he relied to the final champion Carlos Alcaraz. The 38-year-old Serbian joined Jannik Sinner as the only men who reached the semi-finals this year with all four Majors.
The record seven-time Nitto ATP Finals champion, who also won his 100th Trophy at Tour Level this year in Geneva, climbed two places to third place in the live race.
Alex de Minaur – Seventh (3,145), +1
Last year the Minaur made his debut at the Nitto ATP Finals and became the first Australian to qualify since Lleyton Hewitt in 2004. After his run to the US Open quarterfinals this year, the 26-year-old looks good to return to Turin. The Minaur, who won his first title of the season in Washington in July, has a tour-leading 28 victories over hard courts in 2025 according to the Infosys ATP Win/Loss Index.
Lorenzo Musetti – Eighth (3,070), +1
After a slow start of the North American swing, Lorenzo Musetti turned things around in New York by reaching his first big quarter final on hard courts. With the breakthrough, the 23-year-old is back in the qualifying places for Turin, where he wants to make his debut. This season, Musetti has a record of 30-13, emphasized by semi-final performances on all three-clay court ATP Masters 1000 Events and Roland Garros.
Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner have already qualified for the Nitto ATP Finals, which will take place from 9-16 November in Inalpi Arena in Turin.
