Roger Federer, whose season was curtailed by injury, did not qualify for the Tour Finals for the first time since 2001, ending his record streak of 14 consecutive appearances. He fell to world No. 16 in the rankings as a result, ending his streak of 734-consecutive weeks in the world's top 10, the third longest streak in the Open Era. Rafael Nadal qualified, but also withdrew due to injury.
Gaël Monfils, Dominic Thiem and David Goffin (as an alternate replacing Monfils) made their debuts in the event.
