Competing at the Laver Cup 2024 in Berlin and then making a debut only two or three days later at the ATP Tokyo 2024, an extremely high-level event held on the other side of the world, has not been the best idea for many players on the circuit. Of the six tennis players who participated in the team tournament, only one of them managed to win in their debut in Japan. That player is Ben Shelton; on the other hand, the latest victim to join the slaughter was Casper Ruud, who continues to show worrying signs and easily fell to Jordan Thompson (7-6(5), 6-1). The Norwegian is in a terrible form: he struggled with some illnesses during the North American tour and seems unable to find his stride again.

Other results of the day (first round):

  • Jack Draper def. Mattia Bellucci (Q) 6-4, 6-2
  • Tommy Paul (5) def. Matteo Arnaldi 6-3, 6-2
  • Tomas Machac def. Alexei Popyrin 6-3, 6-7(5), 7-5
  • Christopher O'Connell (Q) def. Tomás Etcheverry 6-4, 7-6(5)
  • Holger Rune (6) def. Alejandro Tabilo 6-2, 5-7, 6-4
