Joe Salisbury<\/a> and Neal Skupski<\/a> offered another compelling reminder of why they believe they are the team to beat at the 2025 Nitto ATP Finals<\/a> on Friday evening in Turin.<\/p>\n The fifth seeds completed a flawless 3-0 sweep of the John McEnroe<\/a> Group with a 7-5, 6-3 victory over already-eliminated Americans Christian Harrison<\/a> and Evan King<\/a>. Making their team debut at the prestigious season finale, Salisbury and Skupski remain the only unbeaten pair in the field entering semi-final Saturday.<\/p>\n The unstoppable duo \ud83e\udee1@joesalisbury92<\/a> and @nealskupski<\/a> top the John McEnroe<\/a> Group with a perfect record.#NittoATPFinals<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/4TJJjReM9Y<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 ATP Tour (@atptour) November 14, 2025<\/a> <\/p>\n Their 72-minute win also extended Salisbury\u2019s personal streak at the Nitto ATP Finals<\/a> to 13 matches, following back-to-back titles with Rajeev Ram<\/a> in 2022-23. The Britons are now level with Harrison and King at 2-2 in their Lexus ATP Head2Head series.<\/p>\n \u201cJoe seems to never lose in a group-stage match,\u201d Salisbury said with a smile. \u201cIt\u2019s going really well, we\u2019re happy to get three wins. We\u2019ve been through some difficult times this week, but we\u2019ve managed to keep going.\u201d<\/p>\n Although Salisbury and Skupski have yet to lift a trophy this season, they have reached five finals \u2014 including at Roland Garros<\/a> and the US Open<\/a> \u2014 and will take plenty of confidence into Saturday\u2019s all-British semi-final against top seeds Julian Cash<\/a> and Lloyd Glasspool<\/a>. They have surrendered just one set on their way to the last four.<\/p>\n \u201cI think we just give it our all in every match,\u201d Salisbury added. \u201cWe know it\u2019s going to be tough with all the best teams here, but there\u2019s something about this place that I feel good here and enjoy playing on this court.\u201d<\/p>\n Harrison and King were hoping to become the first all-American duo to earn a win at this event since Mike Bryan<\/a> and Jack Sock<\/a> captured the title in 2018. But they were outmatched by Salisbury and Skupski, whose sharp volleying and dominant serving prevented them from facing a single break point, according to Infosys ATP Stats.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n
