Alcaraz, Sinner, Vacherot: The 2025 Rolex Paris Masters Draw Revealed
The draw for the 2025 Rolex Paris Masters has been revealed, and it promises explosive match-ups right from the first round.
The Masters 1000 season will conclude with the Parisian tournament, which will be held for the first time in its history at the "Paris La Défense Arena" (from October 27 to November 2).
In Nanterre, the organizers will be able to count on the presence of the world's two best players: Alcaraz and Sinner, but will have to manage without the record Grand Slam champion: Novak Djokovic.
The Spaniard will start against the winner of the match between Norrie and Baez, while the Italian will begin his campaign directly in the second round against Michelsen or Bergs.
For Alexander Zverev, the No. 3 seed, the draw seems favorable on paper. The German, still searching for confidence and approaching the defense of his title in Paris, will face a qualifier or Ugo Carabelli in the second round.
Among the other seeds, Taylor Fritz (4) received a first-round bye and could face Atmane in the second round, Alex de Minaur will face Griekspoor or Diallo in the second round, and Shelton could play Cobolli in his opening match.
Valentin Vacherot, the surprise winner of the Shanghai Masters 1000, received a wildcard for the main draw and will face Lehecka in his debut. The Monegasque player could once again meet his cousin Rinderknech in the next round.
Furthermore, João Fonseca, the Brazilian gem who just qualified for his first semi-final at the ATP 500 in Basel, is once again drawn against Canadian Denis Shapovalov.
As for the French players: Rinderknech, Atmane, and Moutet will play against a qualifier/SE, and Muller will face Nakashima in his opening match. Meanwhile, Mpetshi Perricard will challenge the former top 10 player, Grigor Dimitrov, and Cazaux will face the Italian Darderi. As for Bonzi, he will have the tough task of playing Khachanov, just like Ugo Humbert, who is drawn against the No. 15 seed: Davidovich Fokina.
