Correct Answer : Option (A) - Novak Djokovic



Novak Djokovic beat Norway's Casper Ruud 7-5 6-3 to collect a record-equalling sixth ATP Finals title on Sunday(20th Nov 2022), earning the biggest paycheck ever in tennis - $4,740,300 - for completing the season-ending tournament unbeaten.
 
* Djokovic sealed victory in style with his ninth ace to collect the title for the first time since 2015 in front of a rapturous crowd.
 
* "Got to stay focused the entire match, every single point, the momentum can switch to the other side really quickly."
 
* "The fact that I waited seven years makes this victory even sweeter," he added as he matched Roger Federer's haul of six titles in the season-ending event.
 
* The 23-year-old Ruud has enjoyed the best tennis of his career in 2022 and battled toe-to-toe with the 21-times major winner early on but produced two clumsy errors to hand Djokovic the break at the end of the first set.
 
* Djokovic put his foot on the accelerator from there on, harnessing his mighty forehand to break Ruud in the fourth game of the second set..
