23 Comebacks in Shanghai: Second-Highest Total Ever Recorded in a Masters 1000
Arthur Rinderknech's victory over Daniil Medvedev (4-6, 6-2, 6-4), a former world number one and 2021 US Open champion, is part of an unprecedented trend.
In Shanghai this year, 23 players won their match after losing the first set (including retirements), a very rare figure in the history of the Masters 1000.
Indeed, this is the second-highest total ever recorded in an ATP Masters 1000 tournament since the category was created in 1990. The only tournament to have done better? Miami, in an exceptional edition.
