The Indian Wells champs are going to Turin. By Chris Oddo | @TheFanChild | Wednesday October 20, 2021
After claiming their first Masters 1000 title at Indian Wells on Saturday, Ivan Dodig and Filip Polasek can celebrate by knowing that they’ll be making a return trip to the Nitto ATP Finals in November.
The tandem officially qualified this week thanks to the fact that Nicolas Mahut and Pierre-Hugues Herbert qualified via points. That means that Polasek and Dodig gain entry per the Grand Slam winner rule.
Turin is going to be something else 😅
