The ATP World Tour Finals 2010 were a tennis tournament that took place from November 21 to 28, 2010, as in the previous year in London in the O2 Arena . It was part of the ATP World Tour 2010 and was played indoors on a hard court. It was the 41st edition of the competition in singles, the 35th in doubles. It marked the end of the 2010 tennis year.

Defending champion in the singles was Nikolai Dawydenko , who could not qualify for participation this year. In the final, Roger Federer defeated his long-time rival Rafael Nadal 6: 3, 3: 6, 6: 1.

Federer won the tournament for the fifth time and drew level with the previous title record holders Ivan Lendl and Pete Sampras .

In doubles, the brothers Bob and Mike Bryan tried to defend their title from the previous year, but failed in the semifinals to the eventual tournament winners Daniel Nestor and Nenad Zimonjić , who defeated Mahesh Bhupathi and Max Mirny in the final .
