Arthur Gea and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina: Alejandro Davidovich Fokina leads 1–0 across 1 recorded meeting.
Alejandro Davidovich Fokina reached the Shanghai Masters semifinals by winning his quarterfinal against Arthur Gea. The match is recorded as completed, but its set-by-set score could not be verified. The loss ends a breakthrough week for Gea, a 21-year-old Frenchman ranked ATP No. 56 who started the season at No. 241. He had won four matches in Shanghai, including straight-set wins over Ben Shelton and Jakub Mensik. The betting market made the No. 25 seed only a slight favorite at 51%, and the two had no prior meetings on record. Davidovich Fokina, ranked ATP No. 26, needed deciding-set tiebreaks to beat Frances Tiafoe and Hubert Hurkacz earlier in the week. His previous Masters semifinals on The Drop Shot's record came at the 2023 Canadian Open and the 2025 Monte-Carlo Masters.
