The 2022 ATP Tour was the global elite men's professional tennis circuit organised by the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) for the 2022 tennis season. The 2022 ATP Tour calendar comprised the Grand Slam tournaments (supervised by the International Tennis Federation (ITF)), the ATP Finals, the ATP Tour Masters 1000, the ATP Cup, the ATP 500 series and the ATP 250 series. Also included in the 2022 calendar were the Davis Cup (organised by the ITF), Wimbledon, the Next Gen ATP Finals, and Laver Cup, none of which distributed ranking points. As part of international sports' reaction to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the ATP, the WTA (Women's Tennis Association), the ITF, and the four Grand Slam tournaments jointly announced on 1 March that players from Belarus and Russia would not be allowed to play in tournaments under the names or flags of their countries, but would remain eligible to play events until further notice. On 20 May 2022, the ATP, ITF, and WTA announced that ranking points would not be awarded for Wimbledon, due to the All England Club's decision to prohibit players from Belarus or Russia from participating in the tournament.

Rafael Nadal defeated Daniil Medvedev in the final to win the Australian Open, his second title there and record-breaking 21st men's singles major title overall, also completing the double career Grand Slam. He then defeated Casper Ruud to win a record-extending 14th French Open title and record-extending 22nd major. Novak Djokovic defeated Nick Kyrgios to win a seventh Wimbledon title and 21st major overall. Carlos Alcaraz defeated Ruud to win his first major title at the US Open, becoming the youngest-ever world No. 1.
