Having lost momentum for a year and affected by injuries, Denis Shapovalov hopes to give new meaning to his career. Still in the top 20 in 2020, the Canadian was sidelined in the summer of 2023 due to a serious knee injury which followed mixed results in the previous months. Freed from his physical problems, the North American has also seen his attitude criticized by his former coach recently, calling into question the Canadian’s investment. But at 100% of his means, Denis Shapovalov is a top world player. But what state will he be in when he returns? This Monday evening, the Canadian will begin his season against an in-form player, Sebastian Ofner. Engaged last week in Hong Kong, the Austrian reached the last four of the tournament, only losing against E.Ruusuvuori after dominating quality players like M.McKenzie, JLStruff and R.Bautista. A great introduction for a player classified as a pure earthman who has difficulty on fast surfaces. But behind his excellent service, Sebastian Ofner now holds the rallies well and does not hesitate to take the initiative from the baseline. Confident and building on his best career season, Sebastian Ofner hopes to confirm this week in New Zealand.
