Pedro Martínez is now the first Spanish player to be knocked out at the ATP Beijing after Jiri Lehecka defeated him with a score of 7-6(4) 6-2. The Valencian player stood his ground against the Czech in the first set, but eventually succumbed to the good feelings of a Lehecka who had not secured any victories in the recent Davis Cup group stage.

Acapulco suffered a new blow this weekend after Hurricane Otis hit the city last year. Now, Hurricane John has caused a new disaster while the city and its inhabitants were still recovering from the catastrophe less than a year ago. Consequently, the Arena GNP, venue for the Mexican Open Tennis Tournament, is once again in lamentable conditions. This is showcased in photos of the facilities circulating on social media. Stay strong!

Since we last saw her at the US Open, Iga Swiatek continues to delay her return to the courts. Neither Seoul, nor Beijing, and now she will also not be present at the Tokyo tournament that will take place between October 21 and 27. In this way, the world number 1 will miss almost the entire Asian tour, pending confirmation of her attendance at the Wuhan WTA 1000 (October 7 to 13). Her name does not appear on the list of participants in Tokyo, showing once again that Swiatek's end of season is getting closer, with the WTA Finals as the final stop.

It had been 6 years since they last faced each other on the circuit, but Kei Nishikori did not miss the chance to further increase his lead in the particular H2H against Marin Cilic. The Croatian had just claimed his first ATP title after three years of drought, but he could not complete the comeback against the local idol in the first round of the ATP Tokyo. Fans enjoyed a true 'vintage' duel between two great icons of this sport, a battle that did not disappoint and ended with the Japanese victory in three sets by 6-4 3-6 6-3. Outstanding response from Nishikori, thus extending his lead to 10 wins to 6 against the player who defeated him in the final of the US Open 10 years ago.

After his first victory in Tokyo, the Italian talked about his main goal in the Davis Cup or how he feels today on the courts compared to last year.
The wave of defeats and casualties surrounding the players who competed in the Laver Cup a few days ago is more than dramatic. After Tiafoe, Tabilo, and Tsitsipas, neither Taylor Fritz was able to win his first match on Asian soil. The top seed at the ATP Tokyo was surprised by the high level of Arthur Fils, who claimed his fifth victory against a top 10 player with a score of 6-4 3-6 6-3. Thus, the American demonstrates the misfortune, so to speak, of the players who were present in Berlin. Zverev, Dimitrov, and Struff are out due to physical problems, and the only one who has secured a victory so far is Ben Shelton. How will Alcaraz, Ruud, Medvedev, and Cerúndolo fare?
