The Chengdu Open is set to take place between 17-23 September, 2025 and sees the first action post US Open as we head towards the Asian hard court swing with the opening ATP 250 headlined by Jack Draper.

A key fixture on the ATP's Asian swing, alongside stops in Hangzhou, Beijing and Shanghai, previous winners include Alexander Zverev in 2023 after a short hiatus. Other victors include Pablo Carreno Busta, Bernard Tomic, Denis Istomin and Karen Khachanov.

In 2016, Khachanov beat Albert Ramos Vinolas 6-7, 7-6, 6-3. Bernard Tomic and Pablo Carreno Busta's wins came in deciding set tie-breaks in the final. Alexander Zverev won by the same scoreline that Khachanov did in the years prior.

Juncheng Shang though made history last year as the first victor on home soil in an ATP event. Albeit Shang is currently not entered into this event in order to try and retain his title. He saw off Lorenzo Musetti 7-6, 6-1 with the Italian set to return this year. Draper leads the field alongside Lorenzo Musetti and Tallon Griekspoor. The Briton apart from the upcoming US Open has not played much this past summer and with a defence of a semi-final from the US Open he will look to accrue as many points as possible afterwards hopefully fit and ready.

Brandon Nakashima also is involved with the top eight seeds headed up by Luciano Darderi, Lorenzo Sonego, Cameron Norrie and Alexandre Muller. Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard, Sebastian Baez, Nuno Borges, Gael Monfils are also among those involved.

The star of Cincinnati, Terence Atmane is helped by his new ranking and if there are any withdrawals in the coming weeks he will benefit. He sits top of the alternate list alongside Quentin Halys.

Draper won Indian Wells earlier this year and his US Open run to the semi-finals proved he can compete at the highest level as he reached World No.4. He has won three titles including Stuttgart last year on grass and it is the perfect chance to add yet another one. Musetti will hope there are no roadblocks this year as he searches for another title without losing in the final this time.

The Italian lost in the semi-finals of the French Open and has struggled for form since, having an injury in said match doesn't help matters. While Monfils as alluded to is a great get for the event as even at 39 and with his days seemingly numbered, he is still one of tennis's greatest showmen.
