Nadal and Federer played at the Australian Open, Wimbledon and US Open, but the 2017 Nitto ATP Finals was their last ATP event together. The legends are on opposite halves of the Rolex Paris Masters draw and have not met since the 2017 Rolex Shanghai Masters final won by Federer. On Wednesday, Nadal faces fellow left-handed Spaniard Fernando Verdasco for the 20th time. The top seed leads his head-to-head with Verdasco 16-3, but the countrymen have split their last six meetings. Following No. 2 Novak Djokovic s win on Tuesday, Nadal must beat Verdasco for a chance to remain No. 1 in next week s ATP Rankings. Nadal is playing his first match since retiring with a right knee injury in the US Open semi-finals against Juan Martin del Potro on 7 September. Federer begins his campaign against former World No. 3 Milos Raonic in a rematch of the 2014 Rolex Paris Masters quarter-finals. Raonic defeated then-no. 2 Federer for what remains the biggest win of his career. Four years later in Paris, Federer seeks the 100th championship of his career after capturing his hometown title in Basel for the ninth time on Sunday. Only Jimmy Connors owns more titles than Federer with 109. Raonic, meanwhile, is seeking his third straight victory over Federer when the Swiss is ranked third (2016 Brisbane final and 2016 Wimbledon SF). Three contenders for the final two spots at the Nitto ATP Finals are in action on Wednesday. Dominic Thiem controls his own destiny at No. 8 in the ATP Race to London, but Kei Nishikori and John Isner are within striking distance. For a chance to qualify, Nishikori needs to reach the Rolex Paris Masters semi-finals and Isner must advance to the final. Both have been done before -- Nishikori successfully reached the Paris semi-finals in 2014 and Isner advanced to the final in ATP Race to London - Rolex Paris Masters Point Projections RACE PLAYER W F SF QF 3R 2R DNP 1 Rafael Nadal Novak Djokovic Roger Federer Juan Martin del Potro Alexander Zverev Kevin Anderson Marin Cilic Dominic Thiem Kei Nishikori John Isner Bold: Player has qualified for Nitto ATP Finals November at The O2 in London.

Two years later, Djokovic returns to Paris with the ability to regain the No. 1 ranking by advancing further than Rafael Nadal. Djokovic begins his campaign on Tuesday against Joao Sousa, while Nadal meets either Fernando Verdasco or Jeremy Chardy in his opener on Wednesday. Djokovic enjoyed 122 straight weeks at No the fourth-longest stint in ATP Rankings history -- before falling to Marin Cilic in the 2016 Paris quarter-finals. When then-no. 2 Andy Murray advanced to the final one day later, the Brit bounced Djokovic from the top spot. Djokovic has spent 223 total weeks at No. 1. Regardless of results in Paris, the year-end No. 1 will not be determined until the Nitto ATP Finals November at The O2 in London. Djokovic and Nadal have qualified along with Roger Federer, Juan Martin del Potro, Alexander Zverev and Kevin Anderson. Four players are in contention for the final two spots, led by Cilic. The World No. 7 can qualify by reaching the Paris semi-finals among other scenarios. The path from Paris to London will be a tricky one for Cilic, who plays Philipp Kohlschreiber in the second round on Tuesday. Kohlschreiber is 7-4 lifetime against Cilic, including a 6-4, 6-4 victory in the third round of ATP Masters 1000 Indian Wells on 13 March. Though Pierre-Hugues Herbert and Nicolas Mahut have qualified in doubles, a Frenchman will not compete in singles at the Nitto ATP Finals. The French are in full force this week with 10 men in the singles draw and six on the schedule Tuesday, including former Top 10 players Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Gilles Simon and Lucas Pouille. At the moment, however, the highest-ranked player from France is No. 28 Richard Gasquet. There are no Frenchmen in the Top 25 of the ATP Rankings for the first time since the week of 16 October 2006, when Gasquet was ranked 27th.
