The stakes are mounting for the main candidates for the title vacated by the Pole Hubert Hurkacz, absent due to injury. Carlos Alcaraz has a chance to get revenge against the Frenchman Gael Monfilshis executioner in Cincinnati, in the midst of the crisis of the North American tour, has been buried.

Jannik Sinner will face the ‘gunboat’ USA Ben Sheltona dangerous crossing, like the next one, against the Russian Daniel Medvedevchampion in 2019, or the Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas.
