On Thursday, Rafael Nadal defeated Tsitsipas 6-4, 4-6, 6-2 in two hours and five minutes to make it to his sixth semi-final appearance.
Daniil Medvedev, who lost all three group matches in last year's season finale, had claimed his first victory in the tournament.
Dominic Thiem is now 2-0 in round-robin play in Group London 2020 and has improved his chances of reaching the semi-finals for the second successive year.
With his sixth win in as many ATP matches against Schwartzman, Novak Djokovic equalled Andrey Rublev's Tour-leading total of 40 wins this season.
According to the ATP, the lines will be called electronically by hawkeye live - as there won't be line judges this year amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
