**By the Numbers: Valentin Vacherot Defeats Novak Djokovic in Shanghai**
*By Rajdeep Saha | Oct 11, 2025, 11:48 pm*
Valentin Vacherot’s dream run at the Shanghai Masters continues as the Monegasque qualifier stunned four-time champion Novak Djokovic to reach the final. Ranked No. 204 in the ATP Rankings, Vacherot triumphed 6-3, 6-4, becoming the lowest-ranked finalist in ATP Masters 1000 history since the format’s inception in 1990.
### Rankings Surge and Records Made
Earlier in the tournament, Vacherot secured his first-ever Top 100 ATP ranking by defeating Holger Rune. Since then, he has surged an incredible 146 spots in the ATP Live Rankings. According to ATP statistics, Vacherot is only the sixth player this century to reach their first ATP Tour final at a Masters 1000 event, and the first since Alejandro Davidovich Fokina did so at the 2022 Monte-Carlo Masters.
### Crunching the Opta Stats
Vacherot made history as the first Monegasque player to reach an ATP-level final in the Open Era. At a ranking of 204, he is now the lowest-ranked player to reach an ATP Masters 1000 final since Andrei Pavel, who reached the final while ranked 191st.
Additionally, Vacherot became the lowest-ranked opponent Djokovic has faced in an ATP-level semi-final, surpassing Joachim Johansson, who was ranked 193nd when facing Djokovic in Adelaide in 2007.
### Journey to the Final
Vacherot’s path to the final has been nothing short of remarkable:
– He began by defeating Nishesh Basavareddy in his first qualifying match.
– Next, he took down Liam Draxl during qualifying rounds.
– In the main draw’s Round of 128, he overcame Laslo Djere.
– In the Round of 64, Vacherot defeated 14th seed Alexander Bublik in a gripping three-set match.
– He then advanced past Tomas Machac in the Round of 32.
– Following that, 20th seed Tallon Griekspoor retired mid-match, allowing Vacherot to progress.
– Impressively, he continued by beating 27th seed Tallon Griekspoor, 10th seed Holger Rune, and finally 4th seed Novak Djokovic to book his spot in the final.
Valentin Vacherot’s breakthrough performance at the Shanghai Masters has not only rewritten records but also announced his arrival on the ATP Tour’s biggest stages. Fans and tennis enthusiasts will be eagerly watching to see if he can complete his stunning run by claiming the title.

**Jasmine Paolini Beats Iga Swiatek for the First Time at Wuhan Open**
*By Rajdeep Saha | October 10, 2025, 9:11 PM*
In a stunning upset at the Wuhan Open quarter-finals, Italy’s Jasmine Paolini defeated world number two Iga Swiatek for the very first time. Paolini secured a commanding 6-1, 6-2 victory in just 65 minutes, marking their seventh career meeting and ending Swiatek’s six-match winning streak against the Italian.
**Match Highlights and Stats**
Despite Swiatek serving 2 aces compared to none from Paolini, the Italian showcased impressive consistency. Swiatek committed two double faults, while Paolini had just one. Paolini’s first serve win rate stood at 68%, with a 57% success rate on her second serve. Most notably, she converted all six of her break point opportunities, demonstrating clinical finishing.
**Head-to-Head Recap**
Before this defeat, Swiatek had dominated their rivalry, winning six consecutive matches against Paolini. Their recent meetings included Swiatek’s victories in the Cincinnati Open final and the Bad Homburg semifinals in 2025, as well as wins at the 2024 BJK Cup, the 2024 Roland Garros final, the 2022 US Open, and Prague 2018.
**Semifinal Showdown: Paolini to Face Coco Gauff**
Paolini’s impressive win sets up a highly anticipated semi-final clash against third-ranked Coco Gauff. Reflecting on her performance, Paolini said in an on-court interview, “Finally I won a match. I’m super happy about my level. Just feels amazing.”
This victory also boosts Paolini’s chances of securing the last singles qualifying spot for the PIF WTA Finals in Riyadh later this season.
**Record-Breaking Performance**
According to Opta, Paolini is only the second player to defeat Swiatek while conceding three or fewer games in a WTA 1000 event, joining her next opponent Coco Gauff who achieved this feat in Madrid 2025.
At 29 years and 276 days old, Paolini has also become the third-oldest player to reach four or more Tier 1/WTA 1000 semi-finals in a single season since 1990. Only Serena Williams (2013-15) and Li Na (2012) have reached this milestone at an older age.
Jasmine Paolini’s breakthrough win over Iga Swiatek signals a thrilling semifinal ahead and an exciting path forward in the Wuhan Open.

*By Parth Dhall | Oct 01, 2025, 05:10 PM*
Men’s singles world number two, Jannik Sinner, clinched the Beijing Open title after defeating USA’s Learner Tien in straight sets. This victory marks Sinner’s third title of the season following a dominant performance in the ATP 500 final held at the China National Tennis Center.
The match lasted just over an hour, during which the Italian star fired an impressive 22 winners. Sinner served 10 aces and did not concede a single break point throughout the encounter. He converted four out of six break point opportunities and maintained a first serve win percentage of 77, underscoring his clinical performance on the court.
With this win, Sinner has joined an elite group, becoming only the third player—after Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal—to win the Beijing Open multiple times. Since making his Beijing Open debut in 2023, Sinner has showcased remarkable consistency, defeating notable opponents such as Daniel Evans, Yoshihito Nishioka, Grigor Dimitrov, and second seed Carlos Alcaraz to reach the final.
In the summit clash, Sinner secured a 7-6(2), 7-6(2) victory over third seed Daniil Medvedev. His dominant run at the tournament is reflected in an incredible 14-1 career record at the Beijing Open.
Sinner’s form in 2025 has been nothing short of sublime. With an outstanding win-loss record of 42-5 this season, he has already lifted three major trophies: the Australian Open, the US Open, and now the Beijing Open. This achievement places him among only three players worldwide to have won three or more titles this year, further cementing his status as one of the sport’s brightest stars.

**By the Numbers: Team World Bags Records at 2025 Laver Cup**
*By Parth Dhall | Sep 22, 2025 | 05:25 pm*

### A Remarkable Comeback
After trailing 1-3 on Day 1, Team World turned the tide with a dominant performance. By the end of Day 2, they had taken a commanding 9-3 lead, highlighted by Fritz’s stunning victory over Carlos Alcaraz. Team World continued their momentum on Day 3, ultimately winning 15-9.
### Defining Wins

### Clean Sweep on Day 2
Team World achieved an incredible feat by winning all four matches on Day 2.

### First-Ever Turnaround
This edition of the Laver Cup was historic, as it was the first time the team trailing on Day 1 came back to win the entire event. On the opening day, Team World’s only win was by Joao Fonseca, who defeated Flavio Cobolli 6-4, 6-3.

Opta also highlighted several individual milestones from the tournament:
– Taylor Fritz became the first player to secure multiple ATP top-five wins during a single Laver Cup.
– He is also the first American to win a singles match at the Laver Cup held on American soil.
– Alex de Minaur has now matched Nick Kyrgios with the joint-most Laver Cup wins (4) among Australian players.
