Russian tennis player Daniil Medvedev, who is currently ranked third in the world, has announced his participation in the ATP Zhuhai Championships in September. Medvedev has been in excellent form this year, winning four titles, including the Miami Masters earlier this month. He has won an ATP Tour hard court championship in 19 different cities.
Medvedev expressed his excitement about playing in China again after three years: “I’m looking forward to coming back to China and playing at the Hengqin International Tennis Center…It will be great to play again in front of the Chinese fans.” The inaugural edition of the ATP Tour 250 tournament was held in 2019, with Australian Alex de Minaur winning the title.
The Zhuhai Championships is a great benefit and gift for tennis fans in the Greater Bay Area, according to Peter Lyu, executive director and general manager of Huafa Sports. Alison Lee, the ATP’s executive vice president for the international region, also expressed her excitement about the tournament’s return to the tour calendar.
