ATP World Tour records
The Association of Tennis Professionals, or ATP, was formed in September 1972. The men's professional tour, known as the Grand Prix tennis circuit from 1970 to 1989, was administered by the Men's International Professional Tennis Council (MIPTC) from 1974–1989, which was a sub-committee of ATP, International Tennis Federation (ITF) and tournament representatives.[1][2] The ATP became the only governing body for men's tennis from 1990.
These are some of the important ATP records since the inception of the ATP in 1972. They may or may not include ITF events such as Davis Cup, since the ATP is not consistent in what they include as "official." For a complete list of Open Era records (1968–present) see the article Tennis records of the Open Era – Men's Singles.

Year-end championships
(1970–present)
- The best players of all participants on the world tour, within a season, would qualify for the year-end tournament.
- The world tour event began in 1970 and was originally known as the Masters Grand Prix as part of the Grand Prix tennis circuit. It was organised by the International Lawn Tennis Federation (ILTF).
- In 1990, the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) took over the running of the men's tour and replaced the Masters with the ATP Tour World Championship. Between 2000 and 2008, the event was called the Tennis Masters Cup and was endorsed by ITF, ATP and the Grand Slam tournaments (as a result of merging the ATP Tour World Championship with the Grand Slam Cup). In 2009 the Championship was renamed the ATP World Tour Finals.
- Currently, the tournament is organized at the O2 Arena in London, under efficient lighting conditions of play, on blue, medium fast, low bouncing, hard courts.
(1971–1989)
- The best players of the season, from a reduced pool of professionals under contract for the WCT circuit, would qualify for the circuit finals.
- The WCT Finals was the season-ending championship for the World Championship Tennis circuit. The event was held annually in Dallas, Texas, and played on indoor carpet courts. The 1971 quarterfinals and semifinals were played in Houston, and final played at Moody Coliseum in Dallas. The 1972–1979 editions were played at Moody Coliseum, and the 1980–1989 tournaments at Reunion Arena in Dallas. The WCT, in 1974, was the first tennis tournament to experiment with electronic line calling

After the Grand Slams and the World Tour Finals,there are nine yearly tournaments that are most important.

The name Tennis Masters started in 2000: until 2004 the Tennis Masters Series, from 2005 until 2008 the ATP Masters Series, and since then they have been held under the name ATP World Tour Masters 1000.

- * note: Björn Borg's 1979–80 streak totals do not include an additional 7 wins in Davis Cup, Swiss Indoors or Palermo events. His streak total in some sources is 48 during this time period. The 1978 streak totals do not include an additional 14 wins at the Las Vegas Indoor, Davis Cup or the Milan WCT. His streak total should be 49 in 1978.[12][13] Some of this may be confusion or errors over walkovers (which count as neither wins nor losses).
