Video - The embrace between Rinderknech and his cousin Vacherot after their qualification for the Shanghai final

Indeed, tennis never fails to surprise. Arthur Rinderknech and his cousin Valentin Vacherot will face each other in the final of the Shanghai Masters 1000.

The two men, who have had a fabulous run in China, will attempt to win the first major tournament of their careers this Sunday.

While no one expected such a matchup, both players were surprised but also moved to see such a scenario unfold. As evidenced by these images captured by cameras following the Frenchman's victory over Daniil Medvedev.

A video to watch below.
