Alexander Zverev is the highest remaining seed in the top half of the Shanghai Masters. The third seed faces unseeded Arthur Rinderknech in round three of this outdoor hard court tournament. Here's our match prediction.
The withdrawal of top seed Carlos Alcaraz has boosted the chances of Zverev making it to his second hard court final of the year. The other was in the Australian Open. Zverev is third in the world rankings but a long way behind Alcaraz and Sinner. In the ATP Live Race, the German is in fourth place.
If he can get past Rinderknech, the last 16 will see him face either 23rd seed Denis Shapovalov or 15th-seeded Jiri Lehecka.
His one match so far in Shanghai saw him defeat qualifier Valentin Royer 6-4 6-4.
Arthur Rinderknech won his only previous match against Zverev. That was on grass at Wimbledon this year and went to five sets with three tie-breaks played. The Frenchman has only an 11-16 hard court record this year.
This is only the third time in 2025 that he's reached round three of a hard court tournament. This week has seen him beat Hamad Medjedovic (who retired after winning the first set) and 28th seed Alex Michelsen 6-3 6-4 and is 52nd in the live rankings.
We tip Zverev to win in straight sets.
