The excitement of the major tournaments returns with the Masters 1000 in Shanghai, the penultimate of the season. Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, and Novak Djokovic will meet again on the courts since the US Open 2024, which the Italian managed to book.

Many things to review in the largest tournament in Asia, despite having somewhat challenging schedules for European fans. The season continues, and the best players will strive to add another Masters 1000 to their collections. Carlos Alcaraz will aim to win his second Masters of the year, while Jannik Sinner will battle for his third title. As for Novak Djokovic, it could be his first of the year, although he has already claimed this tournament four times.

- Schedule and Timings of the ATP Masters 1000 in Shanghai 2024

The first round will start on Monday, September 30, with the first matches at 12:30 PM local time, corresponding to 6:30 PM in Spanish peninsular time. The day will end around 10:00 PM in Shanghai, equivalent to 4:00 AM in the Iberian Peninsula. This schedule applies from the first day of competition until Friday, October 11.

The individual final will have a timing suitable for European fans, beginning around 4:30 PM (local time) on Sunday, October 13. Consequently, it will be 10:30 PM on the peninsula, in the prime-time slot for television.

- Prize Money and Points to be Awarded at the ATP Masters 1000 in Shanghai

The prizes awarded to players are always interesting to review for each tournament, along with the points allocated to each, potentially leading to significant ranking changes. Here's the breakdown:

• Q1: $7,000
• Q2: $13,500
• First round: $23,250 / 10 points
• Second round: $34,550 / 30 points
• Third round: $59,000 / 50 points
• Fourth round: $101,000 / 100 points
• Quarterfinals: $185,000 / 200 points
• Semifinal: $325,000 / 400 points
• Runner-up: $585,000 / 650 points

- No Defending Champion

Unfortunately, the defending champion, Hubert Hurkacz, will not be able to defend his title due to injury, resulting in a loss of 1000 points and dropping out of the top 10. The Polish player underwent knee surgery in July and withdrew from the Chinese tournament after being defeated in the Tokyo ATP round of 16.

Therefore, the chances for top players to clinch the title increase, but there is also the possibility of a new Masters 1000 winner.
