Italy's world number one Jannik Sinner and Spanish rival Carlos Alcaraz both enjoyed comfortable victories in their opening matches at the Shanghai Masters - just three days after contesting a dramatic China Open final.
Sinner, 23, bounced back from losing to Alcaraz in Beijing, cruising to a 6-1 6-4 victory over Japan's Taro Daniel at the ATP 1,000 event.
The top seed took just one hour and 17 minutes to book his place in the third round and followed a similarly destructive display from third seed Alcaraz, who was on court a minute less in his 6-2 6-2 win over China's Shang Juncheng.
