The round of 32 match of Paris Masters between Ugo Humbert and Alexander Zverev will take place on November 1.
Ugo Humbert had a successful return to his home Masters event in Paris after a three-year absence. He clinched a victory over Marcos Giron, marking his first win at this venue since 2020, when he defeated Casper Ruud, Stefanos Tsitsipas, and Marin Cilic, reaching his first-ever quarterfinal result at the Masters level. In Basel last week, the French player started by defeating Marcos Giron in the first round. He then continued to advance, reaching the semifinals and overcoming tough opponents like Nicolas Jarry and Dominic Stricker. This marked his sixth quarterfinal result in the last eight ATP events.
With ATP Finals qualification at stake and an initial setback, Alexander Zverev fought back from losing the first set to secure a challenging first-round victory against Marton Fucsovics in 2 hours and 39 minutes, with a score of 4-6, 7-5, 6-4. Zverev comfortably occupies a qualifying spot in the Race to Turin but aims to avoid early exits, as it could allow rivals like Hubert Hurkacz and Casper Ruud to catch up. After missing the 2022 ATP Finals due to injury, Zverev is eager to return to the tournament he won in 2018 and 2021. He’s had success in Paris, reaching the quarterfinals in three of his last five appearances and finishing as the runner-up to Daniil Medvedev in 2020.
