In the last few days, incessant rain has forced the organizers of the Shanghai Masters 2024 to push ahead matches scheduled to be held in the open courts, so much so that as of October 8, the Round of 32 was just being completed. This means that between October 9 and 10, both the Round of 16 and the Quarter-finals will have to be held in quick succession, so that the semi-finals and final go as per schedule on October 11 and October 13 and allow the players much needed rest days.
