2020 Rolex Paris Masters was revealed on Saturday with Rafael Nadal and Stefanos Tsitsipas headlining a stellar field at the Accor Arena this upcoming week.

Top-seeded Rafael Nadal is back in Paris just three weeks after he clinched a record-extending 13th Roland-Garros title.

The Spanish 20-time Grand Slam champion has broken inconceivable records on Parisian clay but has yet to taste victory at the Rolex Paris Masters. His best result at the event came in 2007, when he was runner-up to David Nalbandian.
The 34-year-old opens his Paris campaign against 2017 finalist Filip Krajinovic or Spanish veteran Feliciano Lopez. Victory in his second-round clash would see Nadal become the fourth man in the Open Era to join the 1000-match wins club.

Nadal shares the same half of the draw with No.4 seed and US Open runner-up Alexander Zverev, in-form fifth seed Andrey Rublev, as well as the likes of Borna Coric, Stan Wawrinka, Grigor Dimitrov and David Goffin.
