Mahut begins his busy day at 11 am against countryman Paul Henri-Mathieu. The Frenchmen were born nine days apart in 1982 and live in Boulogne-Billancourt. But despite their proximity in age and residence, Mahut and Mathieu have only met twice on the ATP World Tour. The older Mathieu leads 2-0 in their FedEx ATP Head 2 Head rivalry. Mahut is enjoying a milestone week in ’s-Hertogenbosch. The two-time champion began his title defense with a win over qualifier Lukas Lacko on Monday, the same day that he became the second World No. 1 from France in doubles or singles. Mahut joined Hall-of-Famer Yannick Noah, who spent 19 weeks atop the Emirates ATP Doubles Rankings during the 1986 and 1987 seasons. Because his regular partner Pierre-Hugues Herbert is playing singles in Stuttgart this week, Mahut is teaming with World No. 10 Rohan Bopanna for the first time. They make their debut Wednesday in the third match on Court 1.

After defeating Donald Young on Monday, the two-time Tokyo champion cedes the Centre Court spotlight Tuesday to countrymen Yoshihito Nishioka, Yuichi Sugita and Taro Daniel. All three wild cards achieved career-high rankings earlier this season, then teamed with Nishikori to sweep Ukraine 5-0 in a Davis Cup World Group Play-off tie September 16-18. The Japanese squad lost only one set during the tie, with Nishioka and Daniel each earning two singles victories and Nishikori and Sugita winning the doubles rubber. In Tuesday’s first match, Nishioka seeks the biggest win of his career versus 14th-ranked David Goffin. The Belgian is 7-7 since letting a two-set lead slip away against eventual finalist Milos Raonic in the Wimbledon fourth round. Like Nishioka, Sugita will play for his greatest victory by ranking against No. 2 seed and World No. 8 Gael Monfils. Then, Daniel takes on resurgent Serbian Janko Tipsarevic, who reached the Shenzhen semi- finals last week.

The victor will claim his second ATP World Tour singles title of 2018. Additionally, a win for Pouille is projected to put him into the Top 10 of the ATP World Tour singles rankings for the first time in his career. • Pouille has now reached his second final in as many weeks, and, indeed, he was only a couple of games away from coming into Dubai with two titles on the season already in hand. However, Pouille fell to Karen Khachanov in the Marseille final last week, with the Russian prevailing 7-5 in the final set. The arduous final did not end well for the Frenchman, but he still came to Dubai undeterred. This week, after eliminating former Top 10 player Ernests Gulbis in the first round, Pouille exacted revenge on Khachanov in the second round with a three-set win over the Russian.
