Mannarino defeated the Finn Emil Ruusuvuori 7: 5 and 6: 2 in the semifinals and is fighting for his second tournament victory after ´s-Hertogenbosch 2019 on Sunday. For John Millman, it would be the first ever tournament success at ATP level. The Australian was able to prevail in the semifinals against France Tiafoe with 3: 6, 6: 4 and 6: 4.
In head-to-head, Millman leads with 2-0 victories. Most recently, he won the ATP Masters 1000 tournament in Cincinnati / New York just in the tie-break of the third set.
The outcome of the doubles tournament is not unimportant in terms of the ATP final: the two Australians Max Purcell and Luke Saville made a significant step towards London with their entry into the finals. In the final, Purcell / Saville meet Sander Gille and Joran Viegen. However, the two Belgians would have to do a great job next week in Paris-Bercy to be among the eight best teams of the year.
