Djokovic overcame American John Isner 6-4, 6-3 in just 73 minutes at the round-robin stage of the season-ending tournament at the O2 Arena.
Ronaldo was in the stands alongside his girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez and son Cristiano Ronaldo Jnr, with the Juventus superstar fresh from having helped his side beat AC Milan at the weekend.
The 33-year-old was called into action during one point with an impressive catch when a ball entered the crowd.

The Portuguese star scored the decisive second goal in Juve's 2-0 win at the San Siro as Max Allegri's men moved six points clear at the top of Serie A.
Ronaldo is currently enjoying a break from the national team and was again absent from Fernando Santos' squad for the forthcoming Nations League matches against Italy and Poland.
Djokovic showed just why he has been installed as favourite for the tournament in London as he produced a masterclass to clinch victory over Isner with Ronaldo courtside.

The Serbian said of his performance: "The match was great. I managed to have three breaks of serve, which is something like Mission Impossible against John.
"I managed to be in the right place at the right time. I thought I backed it up from the baseline. I played very solidly."
