World No.4 Marin Cilic and Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov have sealed their spots in next month's ATP Finals, leaving two berths still up for grabs in the season-ending tournament in London.
The duo join world No.1 Rafa Nadal, Swiss ace Roger Federer, Germany's Alexander Zverev and Austrian Dominic Thiem in the elite eight-man field after Sam Querrey's first-round loss on Tuesday at the Vienna Open.
Croatian Cilic won May's Istanbul Open and reached the finals at Wimbledon and Queen's Club to help earn his place spot in the ATP Finals for the third time, having previously competed in the 2014 and 2016 editions.
"Third time in four years to make it to London. That was one of my goals at the beginning of the season with my team and I'm glad that we have accomplished it," Cilic told the ATP website.
Dimitrov's first ATP 1000 title in August at the Cincinnati Open and his Sofia Open and Brisbane International triumphs helped the 26-year-old became the first Bulgarian to qualify for the ATP Finals.
With Andy Murray, Novak Djokovic and Stan Wawrinka all out injured, Belgian David Goffin and Spaniard Pablo Carreno Busta are favourites to grab the remaining spots at the November 12-19 event.
