Zverev has achieved success in several tournaments, winning six titles in 2021, the most on the ATP Tour. He is also the player born since 1990 with the most career titles at 22. Notably, Zverev defeated the world number 1 Djokovic on three occasions, including the 2018 Nitto ATP Finals, 2020 Tokyo Olympics, and 2021 Nitto ATP Finals championships. He also reached his first Grand Slam final at the 2020 US Open, where he rallied from a two-set deficit to defeat Carreno Busta in the semifinals but lost to Thiem after squandering a two-set lead in the final. Zverev has achieved victories over Djokovic in the 2017 Rome tournament and Federer in the 2017 Montreal tournament, winning his first and second ATP Masters 1000 titles, respectively. He joined Murray and Thiem as the only players to defeat Djokovic on hardcourt, Federer on grass, and Nadal on clay.

Zverev has been performing well in the 2024 ATP Masters 1000 events, reaching the round of 16 in all nine tournaments this season. He aims to reach his 31st ATP Masters 1000 quarterfinal and his sixth in 2024, with this being his fourth appearance in Paris (previously reaching the quarterfinals in 2018, the final in 2020, and the semifinals in 2021).

Fils has had notable victories, including defeating Zverev, who was ranked number 4 at the time, to win the 2024 Hamburg title. He then had a thrilling run in the 2024 Tokyo tournament, where he saved a championship point in the all-French final to defeat Humbert. Fils made history as the youngest Frenchman to win an ATP Tour title since Gael Monfils in 2005. In 2023, he reached his first ATP Tour semifinals in Montpellier and Marseille. Fils also had success in the junior circuit, reaching the boys’ singles final and winning the boys’ doubles title at the 2021 Roland Garros.

Fils is playing in his first ATP Masters 1000 round of 16 in Paris and hopes to achieve his biggest career win. Currently leading the PIF ATP Live Race to Jeddah, he boasts an impressive 9-1 record against top 50 players since September, with his only loss coming against Shelton in the Basel semifinals. Fils aims to become the youngest Frenchman to reach the quarterfinals in Paris.
