Ben Shelton urgently needed to taste victory again. After the injury that knocked him out of the US Open and a low-energy performance in Shanghai, the ATP Basel 2025 seemed like the perfect stage to rebuild a positive momentum. However, he came close to an early exit: saving two match points while trailing 4-6 in the third set tiebreak against a Kamil Majchrzak who had the victory within reach and made a huge mistake to surrender it (6-7(2), 6-3, 7-6(7)). In a tournament where he is defending last year's final, this triumph appears to be a crucial breath of fresh air for Ben, who will face Jaume Munar in the round of 16.
Other results of the day (first-round matches):
- Reilly Opelka (Q) def. Sebastián Báez 6-4, 6-4
- Marin Cilic (Q) def. David Goffin (LL) 7-6(9), 7-5
- Valentin Royer (LL) def. Raphael Collignon 6-4, 7-6(5)
- Denis Shapovalov (9) def. Marcos Giron 6-7(3), 6-0, 7-6(4)

Novak Djokovic confirmed today what seemed like an open secret: he will not be at the ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025 next week. The Serbian showed in Saudi Arabia that he is still not at 100% physically, although he left a small ray of hope by stating that he would be preparing for the last two tournaments of the year. Everything indicates that it will be the ATP in Athens and the ATP Finals, so Nole was the first to send a message to the fans after announcing his withdrawal from the last Masters 1000 of the year. "Dear Paris, unfortunately I will not compete in the tournament this year. I have very fond memories and have had a lot of success over the years, especially in being able to win the title seven times. I hope to see you next year. Thank you." Open door to a full schedule in 2026?

The German, who aims to finish the most successful year of his career with great results, talks about his upcoming clash against a Sinner whom he already defeated at Roland Garros 2023.
Jo-Wilfried Tsonga has become quite viral in recent days after his statements comparing the current era with that of the Big Three, but his interview with Univers Tennis revealed some other interesting excerpts that have gone unnoticed. One of them concerns his more immediate future, with Jo-Willy not only leaving the door open to becoming a coach in the future but also showing enthusiasm for the idea. "I would love to coach, of course. I see myself doing it, I feel like I would enjoy it immensely. However, you must find the right project, the right person to be away from home for 35 weeks". Whom would you like to see the Frenchman coach?
🗣️ Tsonga: "I WOULD LOVE TO COACH. I see myself doing it, I feel I would take immense pleasure in it. You still need the right project, the right person to make you leave your home for 35 weeks."

The Italian, undefeated in the last two Finals and a great architect of his team's success, has decided not to be part of the Azzurri squad in Bologna. Do new favorites emerge?
Juan Ignacio Chela was one of the most recognizable faces on the circuit over the last decade. The Argentine, currently away from the tennis world after a brief stint coaching Nico Jarry, spoke with La Nación recalling his battles against the Big Three... and, as expected, he didn't hold back when asked who the greatest of all time is: Roger Federer.
"They may have surpassed him in numbers, but for me, Roger is the greatest. I experienced it first-hand. I only managed to win one set against him, once, in Miami: I couldn't keep up with him on the court. He would pull me out from the baseline: with his serve, with a drop shot, he would take time away from me on the right side, in the second after the return... If you ask Chat GPT to create the ideal tennis player, I think it would make Roger. The others may have outdone him in numbers, but the ease, talent, and class of Federer, for me, no one else has it," stated the Argentine, without a doubt.
“If Chat GPT had to design the perfect tennis player, it would make Federer.” 🎾

Surprise news we have experienced in a morning of announcements regarding the 2025 Davis Cup. Alexander Zverev will lead Germany again after almost three years of absence, becoming the spearhead of the German team for the Bolonia Finals. The last time Sascha participated in this competition was at the beginning of 2023: despite a season finale filled with tournaments and physical discomfort in his back, the Hamburger has committed to his national team. It should be noted that they could be our opponents in the semifinals, although first the German team, completed by Jan-Lennard Struff, Yannick Hanfmann, and the experienced doubles pair Krawietz/Puetz, must overcome Argentina in the quarterfinals.

Karolina Muchova is one of the great talents on the women's circuit, but one plagued by injuries and physical discomfort. In a final stretch of the year with several top-ranked players already thinking about the WTA Finals, the WTA Tokio 2025 emerges as a fantastic opportunity for the Czech to take advantage of the turmoil. She is one of the top candidates to end the year with a new medal and began her journey convincingly, outplaying Marketa Vondrousova, who, on top of that, was forced to retire due to injury (6-2, 1-0 and retirement). We will be watching closely her progress in an event where she starts with a good chance.
Results of the day (first-round matches):
- Eva Lys (Q) d. Katie Boulter (Q) 6-2, 6-1
- Varvara Gracheva (Q) d. Xinyu Wang 4-6, 6-3, 6-4
- Maya Joint d. Viktorija Golubic (LL) 1-6, 7-6(5), 6-2
