Tsonga continued his strong play this week by beating Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic 6-3, 7-5 in their match late on Saturday, putting the sixth-seeded Frenchman into the final of this event for the first time, in only his second appearance.
Tsonga will play Federer for the third Sunday in a row, after losing to him in the Paris final two weeks ago and their first round-robin match in London last weekend.
"Roger is the best player for the moment indoors," Tsonga said. "It's going to be really special here, for my first final here. It's going to be an amazing atmosphere on court, and I like that. ... I know it's the last match (of the year) so I will give it everything."
