Order of play for Tuesday, October 13, at the 2026 ATP Shanghai: Zverev and Davidovich in the night session
An exciting day of tennis is coming this Tuesday, October 13, at the ATP Masters 1000 Shanghai 2026 with the matches of the round of 16 corresponding to the top half of the draw. The big favorite to prevail in this sector is Alexander Zverev, but issues with an ankle create great uncertainty, while Alejandro Davidovich seems to have a great opportunity.
The day will kick off with a morning session starting at 06:00h in mainland Spain, Ceuta, and Melilla, where Álex de Miñaur will face Karen Khachanov. This match is crucial for the Australian's hopes regarding his possible qualification for the ATP Finals, as a victory would clear the path for him to achieve it. Afterwards, Jakub Mensik and the tournament's big surprise, the Frenchman Arthur Gèa, will take to the court.
Zverev and Davidovich will headline the evening session in Shanghai
In the evening session, that is, from 12:00h in mainland Spain, Ceuta, and Melilla, Alexander Zverev and Alexander Bublik will step onto the court in a match that promises strong emotions and will test the German's ankle. It is expected that the Kazakh can rise to the occasion, as he does in grand stages, so a potential surprise cannot be ruled out.
The last match of the day will be between Alejandro Davidovich and Hubert Hurkacz. Both are delivering star-level tennis this week in Shanghai, having been key players by eliminating Tiafoe and Djokovic, respectively. The Spaniard has a great opportunity to advance and knows what it is like to beat the Pole on this same tour, just weeks ago in Chengdu.
In summary, a splendid day for all tennis fans who want to enjoy the action at the ATP Masters 1000 Shanghai 2026, with four matches that are worth following closely and could be vital in the tournament's development.
