French Open champion Stan Wawrinka has become the fourth player to qualify for the season-ending ATP World Tour Finals in London.
The world No 5 joins top ranked Novak Djokovic, fellow Swiss Roger Federer and Britain's Andy Murray in the elite eight-man field for the November 15-22 tournament.
"I can't wait to return to The O2. I reached the semi-finals the last two years and love playing there. The competition will be very tough as usual but I hope to go further this year," Wawrinka said after setting up a US Open semi-final with Federer.
The 30-year-old has won three titles this year, including a second grand slam trophy with victory over Djokovic in the final at Roland Garros.
The chasing pack for the remaining four singles spots in the season-ender include Kei Nishikori, Tomas Berdych, 14-times grand slam winner Rafael Nadal and David Ferrer.
