But it is a tough opener as he faces rising American Alex Michelsen or Yunchaokete Bu who is currently in the Quarter-Finals of the China Open in Beijing this week. Albeit Taylor Fritz is the main seed if he gets through that who he has a great Head to Head record against.
Whilst when it comes to Carlos Alcaraz who is third seed. He takes on Juncheng Shang or Cameron Wong in the second round. Nicolas Jarry likely awaits the Spaniard. Second seed is Alexander Zverev but he too faces a tough assignment. Jordan Thompson is the other seed in his section and could face Zverev if he gets past Tallon Griekspoor or Facundo Diaz Acosta. Daniil Medvedev, Holger Rune, Stefanos Tsitsipas among others also headline the draw in Shanghai.
Another great week of ATP action awaits and the penultimate ATP 1000 tournament of the season is upon us in Shanghai, always an entertaining week and follows straight on from the China Open.
