Alexander Zverev finished his 2018 campaign with a bang, defeating Novak Djokovic 6-4, 6-3 to secure his first ATP Finals title.
Zverev is the first German to win the year-end tournament since former world No. 1 Boris Becker in 1995.
The victory marks the 21-year-old's fourth title of 2018, following victories at Madrid, Munich, and Washington, and 10th overall since turning pro in 2013.
