Jack Sock defeated Filip Krajinovi? in the final, 5-7, 6-4, 6-1, to win the singles title at the 2017 Paris Masters. It was his first Masters 1000 singles title. Sock became the first American man to win an ATP Masters 1000 singles title since Andy Roddick in 2010. For the first time since 2004, more than three of the year's Masters 1000 singles events were won by players outside the Big Four. The win also catapulted Sock from No. 24 in the Race to London (the competition for the year-end championships) to No. 9, which earned him entry to the 2017 ATP Finals. Sock also entered the top 10 for the first time in his career.[1]
Andy Murray was the defending champion but did not participate this year due to injury. As a result of the withdrawals of Murray and Novak Djokovic from the tournament, they fell outside the top-10 in the ATP rankings for the first time since September 22, 2014 and March 5, 2007, respectively.
Krajinovi? became the lowest-ranked player to reach the final of a Masters 1000 singles event since Andrei Pavel in 2003 and the first qualifier to achieve this feat since Jerzy Janowicz in 2012.[2]
