The Serbian, who fully engaged in the fight for a spot in the Masters Cup, sees his options reduced after falling in the first round in Shanghai, although he still has chances.
 

Former tennis player Nicolas Mahut stated that Zverev "deserves it," but urges him to win against Alcaraz in a final "to prove that he is also number one on the court."

The Czech player becomes a surprise in Beijing by reaching her first semifinals in a WTA 1000 event, eliminating two Top 10 players along the way, Sabalenka and Muchova.

The German is already in Shanghai, and although he is not yet the official number one, he stated a few weeks ago that "the only thing I can control is what I do on the track."

Spanish and Italian have been absent for more than four months due to injuries and have not met in a tournament since April, when they played the final of the Masters 1000 in Monte Carlo.
 

The Monegasque returns one year later to the Masters 1000 in Shanghai, where he won his first title coming from the qualifying round, and confesses his objective for the remainder of 2026.

The Spaniard, who repeats the title at the ATP 500 in Tokyo, is already thinking about the four tournaments he has left this year (Shanghai, Paris, ATP Finals, and Davis Cup) that he has not yet won.
