Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?
Zizou Bergs from Belgium is set to face [WC] Shang Juncheng from China in their first tour-level meeting. The two players have previously met twice in ATP Masters 1000 tournaments, with Bergs winning on clay in Rome and Juncheng prevailing on hard court in Paris.
Bergs, aged 26, achieved a career-high ranking of World No. 46 in September 2025 after breaking into the Top 200 in July 2021 and the Top 100 in June 2024. He reached his first ATP Tour final in Auckland earlier in the season and has notable wins over higher-ranked opponents like Rublev and Ramos-Vinolas. Additionally, Bergs has secured multiple Challenger titles and a Wimbledon wildcard in his career.
On the other hand, Juncheng, aged 20, reached a career-high ranking of World No. 47 in October 2024 after becoming the first Chinese teenager to break into the ATP Top 100. He won his first ATP Tour title in Chengdu and has notable victories over players like Tiafoe and Shelton. Juncheng also made history as the first Chinese man to reach the 3rd round of the Australian Open in the Open Era.
Bergs has a strong record against players outside the Top 100 this season, while Juncheng is on a winning streak in Chengdu and aims to bounce back from a foot injury that sidelined him earlier in the year. Both players have shown promise in their young careers, and their upcoming match is eagerly anticipated on Court 1.
