Alexander Zverev wrapped up his 2018 season with the most prestigious title of his career, and he did it the hard way.

There will be no No. 1 vs. No. 2--Novak Djokvoic vs. Roger Federer--final at the year-end championship. Alexander Zverev prevented that blockbuster from taking place when he took down Federer 7-5, 7-6(5) during semifinal action on Saturday afternoon.

The second day of round-robin action in Group A at the Nitto ATP Finals pits Novak Djokovic against Alexander Zverev, while Marin Cilic and John Isner are likely playing for their tournament life.
