They got right to it in Hamburg, with No. 1 seed Alexander Zverev and No. 2 Ben Shelton – with Zverev trying in vain so far to find some form the last few months – getting on court to start things off. But it was Shelton who snatched victory from the jaws of defeat on this day.
In Barcelona, it’s No. 4 Andrey Rublev and No. 6 Holger Rune – who, like Zverev, has been up against it. But both prevailed.
(Monte Carlo, Barcelona and Munich are six hours ahead of EDT).
