If we had been told a few days ago that there would be two cousins in the quarterfinals of the ATP Masters 1000 Shanghai 2025, we would have thought the messenger was crazy. But Arthur Rinderknech and Valentin Vacherot have achieved it, creating an unprecedented family story in the tennis world and emerging as revelations of the tournament.

Nothing can be taken for granted in the tennis world, not even the impossibility of seeing two cousins in the quarterfinals of a top-level tournament. It was already challenging to imagine that Arthur Rinderknech or Valentin Vacherot would reach the quarterfinals of the ATP Masters 1000 Shanghai 2025, but the fact that both have done so defies all logic. The Frenchman speaks about the relationship they share and their effort to reach this level of play.

"Since we were children, we spent our vacations together. It's an incredible story; I'm truly happy for him because he's a great guy. Both of us deserve what's happening here because we've worked very hard throughout our lives. Here, we're having dinner together every night, and on the day one plays, the other warms up with him," affirms the 30-year-old French tennis player, who is pushing his limits in this tournament.

This will be his first appearance in the quarterfinals of a Masters 1000 event, and he will go into that match brimming with confidence, having defeated Zverev and Lehecka, confirming a rising trend that had been noticeable for some time. "This result didn't come out of nowhere; I've been doing the right things to improve for a while. Since working with Pouille, I feel like I manage my emotions better in key moments and have refined technical and tactical details. I'm in great physical, mental, and tennis form, and I want to keep moving forward," stated Arthur Rinderknech, who aims to keep dreaming in this ATP Masters 1000 Shanghai 2025.
