The ATP World Tour Finals produced exhilarating tennis and memorable moments.
Andy Murray walked away with the title, but all the players contributed.
Here, we look back on the 10 best points of the tournament…
10. Milos Raonic (v Novak Djokovic)
Djokovic somehow returned a serve, a forehand and two smashes in this one brilliant exhibition of defensive tennis, but he eventually succumbed when Raonic beat him with a third smash.
9. Kei Nishikori (v Andy Murray)
Nishikori looked poised to save a set point when he lined up a routine smash, but he directed it straight at Murray, who managed to turn his return into a lob. Nishikori had to back-pedal to reach it, and this time unleashed an un-returnable smash.
8. Novak Djokovic (v Milos Raonic)
Djokovic and Raonic exchanged 19 powerful strokes from the baseline in a key point of their second-set tie break and it seemed only an error would decide matters. Djokovic then charged to the net and looked to have been beaten by a low Raonic passing shot, but the Serb scooped out a deft half-volley at his feet that his opponent was unable to return.
7. Gael Monfils (v Dominic Thiem)
Monfils had it all to do when he was dragged to the net by a Thiem forehand that clipped the cord, and his situation worsened when the Austrian then sent him scampering back his baseline with a lob. However, Monfils caught up with the ball and hit a forehand winner on the swivel.
6. Kei Nishikori (v Andy Murray)
Nishikori looked a beaten man when Murray was powering down huge forehands, but the Japanese managed to stay in the point and then decisively turned defence into attack with a forehand winner.
5. Novak Djokovic (v Milos Raonic)
Djokovic and Raonic were neck and neck at 5-5 in their second-set tie break when Raonic charged to the net. He managed to return Djokovic's first attempt at a passing shot, but the Serb then prevailed with an inch-perfect lob that just evaded a fully stretched Raonic and landed safely in.
4. Andy Murray (v Kei Nishikori)
Murray appeared to be on the verge of losing the opening set when he under-hit an attempted lob and Nishikori lined up what looked guaranteed to be a volleyed winner. Nishikori made perfect contact and found what should have been a winning angle, but Murray anticipated the direction to a tee and turned a defensive backhand into a winner.
3. Gael Monfils (v Milos Raonic)
Monfils is arguably the most entertaining player on tour and proved why with a no-look backhand drop shot that a scrambling Raonic could only return into the net.
2. David Goffin (v Novak Djokovic)
Djokovic was dragging a beleaguered Goffin all over the court and it looked like he had won the point when he landed what looked like a perfect drop shot at the net. However, Goffin hit the afterburners and not only reached the ball, but also managed to lob Djokovic and land it bang on the line.
1. Andy Murray (v Milos Raonic)
Murray looked like he would be caught out when he rushed the net 10 shots into a rally and found a Raonic backhand heading straight for his feet, but the world No 1 showed deft footwork and an even defter touch to half-volley the ball narrowly over the net and just out of reach of his opponent.
