Robin Soderling has earned a place at the end-of-season World Tour finals thanks to the composition of the draws for next week's ATP tournaments.

The Montpellier, St Petersburg and Vienna draws have assured the world number five a place at London's O2 Arena on 21-28 November.

"You play the best so every match could be like a Grand Slam final," he said.

Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray have already qualified for the eight-man tournament.

Soderling reached the last eight of this week's Stockholm Open, before losing 7-6 (10- 6-1 to Germany's world number 47 Florian Mayer.

The Swede qualified for last year's London finals, beating Nadal on his way to the semi-finals, where he lost to US Open champion Juan Martin del Potro.

This year Soderling is enjoying the best season of his career, and he said he was keen to improve on last year's London showing this time around.

"I've always dreamed about playing at the finals," he said.

"I had some really good memories from last year. Hopefully I can take that experience and do even better this time. I will have to be ready from the first match."
