The Shanghai Masters returns for the first time in four years with a hefty haul of ATP ranking points up for grabs.

In the last edition of the tournament, Daniil Medvedev triumphed in 2019 as he defeated Alexander Zverev with a confident display.

Medvedev returns to defend his title as the No 2 seed, right after Carlos Alcaraz, who will aim to close the gap to Novak Djokovic at the top of the tree.

Djokovic will not feature in Shanghai and will enter a period of rest ahead of the ATP Finals next month.

Fans across the globe will be keen to see whether any of the chasing pack, including Holger Rune and Stefanos Tsitsipas can challenge Alcaraz, who appears to be the outright favourite for glory this week.
