On Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross unpacks Valentin Vacherot’s stunning run at the Rolex Shanghai Masters. The world No. 204 came through qualifying to win his first ever ATP title, beating Novak Djokovic in the semifinals and his cousin Arthur Rinderknech in an improbable final. We’ll discuss Vacherot’s strength as a player, why Rinderknech almost won it with his forehand and how the match turned around. Then, Joel Drucker and Amy Lundy join to discuss the missed opportunity for Djokovic and Daniil Medvedev, along with the much maligned Shanghai conditions, both weather and court. 0:00 Intro 7:56 Vacherot Strengths 13:50 Forehand Comparisons 19:45 Match Turnaround 26:26 Daniil Medvedev 37:30 Novak Djokovic 45:45 Shanghai Conditions IG: https://www.instagram.com/gillgross_/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gill.gross 24/7 Tennis Community on Discord: https://discord.gg/wW3WPqFTFJ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/Gill_Gross The Draw newsletter, your one-stop-shop for the best tennis content on the internet every week: https://www.thedraw.tennis/subscribe Become a member to support the channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvERpLl9dXH09fuNdbyiLQQ/join Evans Brothers Coffee Roasters, the Official Coffee Of Monday Match Analysis... use code GILLGROSS25 for 25% off your first order: https://evansbrotherscoffee.com/collections/coffee AUDIO PODCAST FEEDS Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5c3VXnLDVVgLfZuGk3yxIF?si=AQy9oRlZTACoGr5XS3s_yg Itunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/monday-match-analysis/id1432259450?mt=2 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
