The Red Group, which also included of Daniil Medvedev, Andrey Rublev, and Alexander Zverev, is led by second-seeded Carlos Alcaraz.
Each group’s top two players go on to the semifinals.
Djokovic is attempting to win the tournament for a record seventh time. Since losing to Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final in July, he has not dropped a set. At now, he and Roger Federer have the same record of six wins.
Zverev is the only player with two tournament victories; Medvedev and Tsitsipas each have one.
The championship match is set on November 19 and the tournament begins on Sunday.
