Denis Shapovalov and Yoshihito Nishioka are going to clash in the 2nd round in Shenzhen.
Shapovalov
Denis is not having a fantastic moment since he is struggling to find some continuity in his tennis. Last week in St. Petersburg, Shapovalov lost a horrible quarterfinal against Martin Klizan after he was leading comfortable 6-3 5-3. In Shenzhen, Denis had to battle more than expected against the world no.100 Ilya Ivashka to beat the world no.100 only in 3 sets.
Nishioka
Currently ranked no.171, Yoshihito is trying to find his way back after he had to undergo a knee injury last year when he was playing the best tennis of his life. The Japanese had to play the qualifications in Shenzhen had he has won already 3 matches in style and without conceding a single set.
