The final ATP event of the year is running from November 13th until 20th and only the eight best players have a chance to participate in it.

Ahead of the 2022 ATP Finals, the tournament organizers prepared an interesting video where all eight finalists sit in one room and asked each other different questions. First question was about what quality do players admire on someone else from the room and it didn't take long before Rafael Nadal started talking about one of his greatest rivals, Novak Djokovic.

"I think I have to say to Novak, he's able to be super professional, to control his body, to hold the passion, doesn't matter how things are going, he always keeps going till the end and that's something very difficult, especially in a super long career after all the success," Nadal said. "To keep having the passion and love for the game, I think's it's something that I admire a lot."

The Serbian quickly responded to compliments from his rival as he went on to name what he admires about the Spaniard.

"I'm really privileged to have the rivalry that we had over the years, I think we respect each other a lot and we push each other to the limit and kind of motivate each other to go even higher, so it's great to be part of that there," Djokovic said.
