Latest Masters 1000 of the season, the Rolex Paris Masters (scheduled from November 1 to 7) unveiled this Thursday its entry list with the majority of the top 50 players registered for the moment. Only players who have ended their season, Rafael Nadal, Dominic Thiem, Roger Federer, David Goffin but also Stan Wawrinka are missing. For the Vaudois, this absence also means that we will not see him on the courts again in 2021. Despite these absences, the cut is for the moment at 49, which means that only Gaël Monfils and Ugo Humbert directly integrate the main board! Fortunately, Benoît Pair and Adrian Mannarino are respectively 1st and 2nd on the list of alternates and should quickly integrate the final table. Le Val-d’Oisien benefits from the new calculation made by ATP. At first, “Manna” was to lose her 90 points from Sofia 2020.

A dilemma in choosing the guests
On the other hand, the choice of the guests promises to be more than difficult for the FFT because ten players can claim the four wild cards planned for the final table. Among them, we can cite Benjamin Bonzi (64e), Arthur Rinderknech (72e), Jeremy Chardy (77e), Richard Gasquet (81e), Corentin Moutet (87e), Pierre-Hugues Herbert (100e), Gilles Simon (109e), Hugo Gaston (112e), Lucas Pouille (150th) or even Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (168th). Some deserve it for their great season, others may play their last Bercy, not to mention other players not mentioned who usually benefit from invitations where even players like Andy Murray who might ask for one. Like every Roland-Garros Where Bercy, there will be happy, disappointed and critics but the choice of the FFT promises to be very complicated, in any case the bets on the wild cards are launched!
