The ATP Tour's elite eight suited up and hit the streets of Turin during a two-day media blitz that dialed up the hype ahead of the season-ending Nitto ATP Finals.

Headlined by former champions Novak Djokovic, Daniil Medvedev and Stefanos Tsitsipas, and also featuring the likes of 22-time Grand slam winner Rafael Nadal, the tournament kicked off with an official gala night that saw players don custom Giorgio Armani suits.

Tsitsipas—who could end the year as world No. 1 should he lift the trophy again with a clean sweep—took fans behind the scenes of his own fitting as players posted up a storm all evening:

The top eight singles players were joined by the top eight doubles teams as well as a constellation of VIPs at the Nuvola Lavazza in Turin for the ATP Finals gala dinner, enjoying an evening of camaraderie before the competition gets underway on Sunday.
