The latest ATP 1000 event begins on Monday in the form of the Paris Masters which sees some of the World's best compete on the Hard Courts for one of the last times this season.
Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Daniil Medvedev are all playing next week with Federer in particular having a short turn around between his home final in Basel and playing in the Masters event.
All of the big names though will get byes including all the aforementioned players. Djokovic will face either Dusan Lajovic or Richard Gasquet. Nadal against either Adrian Mannarino or a Qualifier,
Federer will face either Nikoloz Basilashvili or Benoit Paire. Some of the ties of the first round though include Borna Coric against Fernando Verdasco and Gilles Simon versus Denis Shapovalov. As wll as an intriguing tie between Andrey Rublev and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga.
Daniil Medvedev has won the last two in Shanghai and Cincinnati, can he continue his form or will the Big Three claim the title in the French capital?
