The Special Ks, Nick Kyrgios and Thanasis Kokkinakis, have qualified for the ATP Finals doubles tournament for the first time, ABC News has reported.

Neither player has competed in the season-ending tournament.

Kyrgios and Kokkinakis played seven tournaments together this year, finishing with an 18-5 win-loss record. They claimed their first major at the Australian Open and the Atlanta Open crown, while Kyrgios added a title in Washington alongside American Jack Sock. 

The ATP Finals will be held from November 13-20 in Turin, Italy.
