A major mystery to solve and one that holds significant symbolic meaning. This is how the ongoing battle in the ATP Finals 2025 to secure a spot in the top-5 of the ATP ranking can be defined. With the top four positions already decided, the question remains as to which player will claim the fifth position. Currently, Taylor Fritz is set to be the one to achieve this honor, despite having the same points as Álex de Miñaur. The Australian would surpass him by defeating Sinner in the semifinals. Additionally, Ben Shelton could join the fight if he defeats Jannik this Friday, while Félix Auger-Aliassime needs a win against Zverev to keep his hopes alive.

The victory of Carlos Alcaraz over Lorenzo Musetti at the 2025 ATP Finals has a key collateral consequence, as it secures the Álex de Miñaur's spot in the semifinals. The Australian will face Jannik Sinner on Saturday, November 15, in what will be a tough challenge for him, considering they have competed 12 times with the Italian emerging victorious in all encounters.

Álex de Miñaur has managed to maximize the consequences of his only victory in these ATP Finals 2025, securing a spot in the semifinals. It is not common for a player who only wins one match in the group stage to reach the penultimate round. This is evidenced by the fact that in the history of the tournament, only the Australian David Nalbandian (2006) and Kei Nishikori (2016) had achieved this before. Both fell in their respective semifinal matches.

Alex de Miñaur was very critical of the current system of Masters 1000, where seven out of the nine are two-week events: "What many people don't understand is that, yes, you might have a day off in between, but it's not a complete day off. You're training, going to the courts, warming up, doing gym work, this, that, and the other. For us, the players, at the beginning of the year, we have Indian Wells and Miami, and you spend a month to play two tournaments. The toughest part as a player is being a seed and reaching the fourth round. You play the fourth round in Indian Wells, the fourth round in Miami. You can end up playing six matches in a month, which is not enough."

"You spend the whole month away from home, training, in a hotel, living out of a suitcase, not really enjoying your free time, and you only play six matches, right? I think if you ask any of the players, they would all prefer one-week events because you go there, play, and once you're done, you're done. Yes, it allows us as players to disconnect. I think this year we've seen the amount of injuries. It's been the highest there has ever been on the tour, hasn't it? Not good figures for our sport. We need to take care of the players and their bodies. Obviously, what's happening right now doesn't help much," concludes the Australian.

Alex de Miñaur will watch eagerly the match between Carlos Alcaraz and Lorenzo Musetti. If the Spaniard defeats the Italian, the Australian will advance to the semifinals of the ATP Finals. Therefore, when asked by Movistar +, he did not hesitate to say: "Today I am going to be Alcaraz's number one fan, I hope he can go out and play a great match, it would help me a lot. But I prefer not to stress and think as little as possible about this match."

Alex de Minaur can work the miracle. After being just one set away from elimination, his victory over Taylor Fritz in two sets could allow him to reach the semifinals of the ATP Finals having won only one match. But for this to happen, Carlos Alcaraz must win against Lorenzo Musetti tonight. However, this was unknown to the Australian who, when asked in the on-court interview, couldn't quite believe it: "Is that true or not? Uh... I don't know, right now I don't trust you, I'm going to have to see what happens," he said amidst laughter.
