The Copa Faulcombrigde de Valencia already knows its finalists with a one-day delay. Rain prevented the celebration of the two semifinals this Saturday, but they were able to be played this morning. On one side, Luka Mikrut ended Spanish hopes by defeating Carlos Taberner 7-6(12), 6-0, after a two-hour battle. The Croatian will face Jan Choisnki in the final, scheduled for 18:30 this Sunday, after Choisnki defeated German Henri Squire 6-7(2), 7-5, 7-5 in a two-and-a-half-hour intense duel.

It is inevitable to think about how expensive it was to win Masters 1000 during the first decades of the 21st century and how the landscape has now opened up. No one could have foreseen that Valentin Vacherot would achieve a feat like the one signed at the ATP Masters 1000 Shanghai 2025, something that joins him to a plethora of very important tennis players who ended their careers with a title of this category. Some of them are Stan Wawrinka, Dominic Thiem, Juan Martín Del Potro, Marin Cilic, David Ferrer, Robin Soderling, or Tomas Berdych, as well as Grigor Dimitrov, who is still active.

Valentin Vacherot not only walks away with the title of ATP Shanghai under his belt but also secures a good economic booty.

And after being crowned the champion of the Shanghai Masters 1000, he will receive $1,124,380, almost double what he had earned to date.
