Stefanos Tsitsipas and Gael Monfils are going to fight in the first round in Shanghai.
Tsitsipas
Stefanos is trying to find his best form for the last part of the season to try to qualify for the Finals in London. The Greek sensation has already qualified for the Next Gen finals in Milan, but he wants to go for more. After a not so great stint after his great run in Toronto (where he reached the final), Tsitsipas managed to reach the quarters in Tokyo.
