Andy Murray was the defending champion, but did not qualify for the event this year due to injury. This marked the first time since 2013 that he did not participate in the tournament.

Of the nine participants from the previous year, only Marin Čilić, Dominic Thiem and Goffin returned this year. Stan Wawrinka qualified but could not participate due to injury. Former world No. 1 and five-time champion Novak Djokovic failed to qualify for the first time since 2006, having ended his season early due to an elbow injury.

Alexander Zverev, Dimitrov, Jack Sock and Pablo Carreño Busta (as an alternate replacing Rafael Nadal) made their debuts. Goffin made his debut as a direct qualifier, after playing one match as an alternate in 2016.[3]

Roger Federer participated in the Tour Finals for a record-extending 15th time, but was defeated in the semifinals by Goffin.[4] Goffin became only the fifth player in history to defeat both Nadal and Federer at the same tournament.
