In the upcoming match between Wu Yibing of China and Alexei Popyrin of Australia, it will mark their first tour-level meeting. However, the two have faced off before in the 23 Adelaide 1 Q in Australia, where Popyrin emerged victorious in a close match.

Wu Yibing, aged 25, is currently ranked World No. 243 with a career-high ranking of No. 54. His breakthrough came in 2023 when he rose from No. 1,869 after overcoming injuries that kept him out of competition from March 2019 to January 2022.

Additionally, he qualified for the 2022 US Open, marking the first time a Chinese man reached the event’s 3rd round. Wu’s impressive 2022 season included 3 ATP Challenger Tour titles and an ITF World Tennis Tour title.

On the other hand, Alexei Popyrin, also 25, has experienced success on the tour, reaching a career-high ranking of No. 21 in June 2025. He achieved notable victories like defeating No. 2 Djokovic at the 2024 US Open and winning the 2024 Montreal title, becoming the first Australian ATP Masters 1000 champion since 2003. Popyrin’s run to the 4th round of Roland Garros and claiming two ATP titles further solidified his standing in the tennis world.

In terms of head-to-head matchups, Wu Yibing has claimed victories against significant opponents like Monfils, Fritz, and Kyrgios, aiming to secure his third top-25 win against Popyrin.
