24 September 2026: 2 bets staked, settled 1W-1L. Every entry below was published before its match started.
Hugo Gaston arrives in Hangzhou rested after qualifying at the US Open, where he beat two opponents rated above 1630 before running into Daniil Medvedev. Sho Shimabukuro comes in on a three-match winning run, but two of those wins were Davis Cup rubbers against unrated New Zealand opposition, and he has to fly across the Pacific for a first-thing-in-the-morning start. Our ratings make Gaston the better player on hard courts and the exchange price of 2.10 is well above what a bookmaker is offering on the same selection.
H. Gaston won 2 - 0
James Duckworth arrives in Chengdu trending the right way: he has added nearly forty rating points in three months, has beaten four opponents rated above him inside the last month, and three of those wins came as the underdog. Lorenzo Sonego has gone the other way, with no top-bracket win in ninety days and a first-round loss as favourite at a clay Challenger a fortnight ago. The two met on a hard court four weeks ago and Duckworth won in straight sets without dropping serve once. Pinnacle still makes Sonego a clear favourite, so we are taking Duckworth with a game and a half of cushion rather than backing him outright.
L. Sonego won 2 - 0
