Donna Vekic has emerged as one of the great positive surprises of the season. The Croatian has achieved fantastic results on important stages and also aims to make an impact in the Asian tour. She didn't have an easy start at the WTA Wuhan 2024, trailing behind the always competitive Elise Mertens, but she showed courage and determination to display her best version and get back to the path of victory (3-6, 6-1, 6-3). A great opportunity for the Croatian to top off her season, perhaps with the best possible title (a WTA 1000).

Flavio Cobolli continues to demonstrate his tremendous evolution throughout 2024 in every match. His second-round match at the 2024 ATP Shanghai against Stan Wawrinka had absolutely everything: it was a 2-hour and 30-minute thriller that was resolved... in just one break. Yes, a break in the third set was what gave Cobolli the victory, who wasted two set points in the first set tiebreak but managed to regroup in the second, showing that he was ready for battle. The win, with a final score of 6-7(8), 7-6(4), and 6-3, shattered the hopes of Wawrinka, who was just one game away from achieving two consecutive ATP victories for the first time in 13 months. Up next for Flavio? A certain Novak Djokovic... in less than 20 hours.

Other results of the day (second-round matches):

  • Taylor Fritz (7) d. Terence Atmane 7-6(4), 7-6(5)
  • Grigor Dimitrov (9) d. Zizou Bergs 6-3, 3-6, 6-2

Naomi Osaka had a fantastic opportunity on the Asian tour to give her tennis a boost and build confidence for 2025. Not only that: her return home was eagerly awaited, having signed up for the WTA Osaka 2024 and marking a special event in her native country. However, that excitement faded this morning when Osaka announced that she will not compete in her home country due to the back injury she suffered in Beijing. It remains to be seen if she will be able to compete in the WTA Tokyo 2024, a 500-category tournament held the following week, but the forecasts are not promising.

Unusual and incomprehensible error by Carlos Bernardes in the match between Stan Wawrinka and Flavio Cobolli in the second round of the ATP Shanghai 2024. Second game of the third set: Wawrinka wins the first point, and Bernardes, distracted after requesting some mineral salts for the Italian, forgets to record it. Immediately after, the Italian wins the second point... and to everyone's surprise, Bernardes marks 0-30 on the scoreboard, instead of the correct 15-15. No one, not even Wawrinka himself, noticed an error that turned out to be crucial: Flavio broke the Swiss player's serve in that game (with 30-40, a one-point difference), resulting in the only break of his victory. A critical error that went unnoticed on the court.

Paula Badosa has found herself, without being able to imagine it, in a controversy that became the talk of social media in the last few hours. Her coach, Pol Toledo, posted on Instagram a compilation of images from a tournament, the WTA Beijing 2024, with a satisfactory outcome, showing a fantastic version of Paula. One of those photos sparked some controversy: Badosa appears with chopsticks as an extension of her eyes, something that many fans interpreted as mocking Asians and their characteristic slanted eyes. Therefore, the Catalan apologized on social media in the following manner:

"I didn't know this was offensive or could be considered racist, I'm very sorry. I take full responsibility, it was a mistake. These errors will help me learn for the future. I hope you understand... I love you all," Paula stated on X. Hopefully, this incident will not have any negative impact on Paula's tremendous end of the season.

One of the few matches we have been able to enjoy today in the ATP of Shanghai was the one between Holger Rune and Matteo Berrettini. A great duel that was quite attractive due to the quality of both players, a technical quality of which we were witnesses. Although the Italian started dominating the scoreboard with an iron fist, Rune counterattacked to extend the match and secure a very soothing victory. The Norwegian distributed a lot of tennis, returned very effectively from the second set, and the Italian lost strength in his shots. A good start for Rune who will have to battle tomorrow against Jiri Lehecka for a spot in the round of 16.

Carlos Alcaraz made his debut at the ATP Shanghai last Sunday, October 6, advancing to the round of 16 after his victory over Wu Yibing. Therefore, the next match for the Spanish player should have taken place on Wednesday. However, Carlitos will not take to the courts that day as the rains in Shanghai have forced the daily schedule to be rearranged. Alcaraz still does not know his opponent for the round of 16 since the match between Gael Monfils and Ugo Humbert (his potential opponent) has been postponed twice. Thus, Carlitos will have two rest days before his next match. This means that if he progresses to the final, the player from Murcia will only have one day off between Wednesday and Sunday.

Matteo Berrettini had only one task ahead at the ATP Shanghai, and that was to face Holger Rune. However, the Italian took advantage of the minutes before stepping onto the court to chat with the girl who was supposed to accompany him to his bench. Berrettini asked her how old she was, to which the little girl replied she was seven. His reaction? Well, the Italian had a fun response before telling her how lucky she was. The complete video is down below, it's worth watching.

Frances Tiafoe already knows what it's like to win at the ATP in Shanghai by defeating local player Zhou Yi in straight sets. This is his first victory on Asian soil this season after his participation in the Laver Cup and following his admission to being in one of his best moments. The American praised the great work of his compatriot Tommy Paul there, having to save several match points against Alejandro Tabilo. Tiafoe confessed in the press conference what it feels like when that happens: "I think the last time I did it was against Holger Rune in the Cincinnati semis. It's a great feeling. You're like, 'darn, I'm out of the tournament' and then, 'oh, I'm still in the tournament'. You feel invincible for about 24 hours until the next match starts, feeling like you're living a second life."

The rain is not letting up at the ATP of Shanghai, and the tournament organizers have had to make some adjustments to keep some matches moving forward. In addition to the indoor matches on the main court under a roof, some matches have also been played on indoor courts in a pavilion, such as the Lorenzo Musetti vs David Goffin or the Alexander Bublik vs Roman Safiullin. Moreover, the detail that has made headlines worldwide is that manual scoreboards have been used instead of electronic ones, requiring the score to be changed by hand, causing both laughter and disappointment. It's hard to understand why this type of scoreboard is being used in a Masters 1000 event in the year 2024.
