TOURNAMENT DIRECTOR MICHAEL LUEVANO ON THE RETURN OF THE SHANGHAI MASTERS - 'Tennis is huge in China, it is the last untapped market. They’ve embraced a new generation of players and now they are more educated, they’re younger, we have the youngest audience demographic on the entire ATP Tour in terms of fans, so we’re going to be the best Masters 1000 event in the world'
ATP CHAIRMAN ANDREA GAUDENZI ON TENNIS IN CHINA - ‘China is a very big market and tennis is a global sport, so our presence here in China is really important for us because we want tennis to become a popular sport in the entire world. Having a premium event of this size is really important to try to get more kids to play tennis and more fans to engage'
BEN SHELTON ON HIS RAPID DEVELOPMENT- ‘When you’re in the moment you’re not really focussing on it as much and right now I’m just focussing on improving and onto the next, so I’m not really giving myself time to think about where I was’.
HOLGER RUNE ON HIS DIP IN FORM - ‘Firstly my mind is to get back to my level and from there start improving again and it would be great to say that after a good and then not a good year to at least say that I finished in Turin'
JANNIK SINNER ON HIS PLAN FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON - ‘We try to take this last part of the season as trying to improve, trying a couple of new things on court and making a couple of things happen already for next year so that next year can start in a good way'
STEFANOS TSITSIPAS ON WHAT WINNING THE NITTO ATP FINALS IN 2019 GAVE TO HIM - ‘I look back to these moments that I debuted in before, the year-end tournament and I saw so many positives come out of this and I gain so much that it pushed me through’.
ALEXANDER ZVEREV ON WINNING IN CHENGDU RECENTLY - ‘Just happy to win another title as it’s still my comeback year and it’s been going great so far and important points for Turin, so I’m happy to be here and playing great tennis'
TAYLOR FRITZ ON THE RACE TO TURIN - ‘I have points to defend, but I’m not paying attention to the points because obviously the goal is to be top eight and honestly what it’s going to take is some big results’.
ALEX DE MINAUR ON THE RACE TO TURIN - ‘It’s plain and simple for me, it’s all about myself and if I want to qualify I have to go deep in tournaments and it’s all about me'
CASPER RUUD ON LEARNING FROM DEFEAT TO CARLOS ALCARAZ - ‘Don’t get me wrong, it’s not like I know next time I play him I’ll know all the answers to his game, but next time I’ play him I’ll try to beat him. He’s one of the few guys where you really feel kind of different out there on court'
