Cincinnati Masters 1000 Preview: Can Djokovic Win It? Shelton Defends Montreal & Swiatek Dominates Toronto

The Canadian swing is wrapped up and attention turns to Cincinnati.

We review Shelton’s dominant Montreal title defence over Nakashima and Swiatek’s return to the winner’s circle after beating Rybakina in Toronto, before breaking down the ATP and WTA Cincinnati draws quarter by quarter.

Sabalenka looks to bounce back, Gauff and Andreeva headline a loaded section, while Zverev, Fritz, De Minaur and Shelton lead an open men’s field.

Plus, with Sinner and Alcaraz absent, does Djokovic have a genuine opportunity to chase another Masters 1000 title, or is Cincinnati simply preparation for his pursuit of Grand Slam No. 25 at the US Open?
