Performance NotesThis end-of-year tournament is the season finale to the Tour of Champions, a year-long Tour that makes its way across Europe and the world and pits past tennis champions against each other in order to earn ranking points. The Masters Tennis is held in the unique location of the Royal Albert Hall and draws crowds of more than 30,000 over the course of the event. Players that have taken part in the past have included John McEnroe, Cedric Pioline, Goran Ivanisevic, Pete Sampras and Pat Cash.
NB - Pat Rafter pulled his calf muscle - Greg Rusedski replaced Rafter in the singles field.
