Australia's Alex de Minaur has been confirmed as the top seed for the 2019 Next Gen ATP Finals.
De Minaur enters the tournament as the favourite having won three ATP Tour titles and breaking into the Top 20 this season.
The 20-year-old will be hoping to go one better than last year's tournament in Milan, where he lost the final to Stefanos Tsitsipas.
