VARIOUS OF CILIC CELEBRATING AND SHAKING HANDS WITH BASILASHVILI STORY: Adrian Mannarino eliminated former world number six Matteo Berrettini from the Shanghai Masters on Monday (October 1), with local favorite Zhizhen Zhang also being eliminated in the opening round.      After both players held serve throughout the first 11 games, Mannarino finally converted a beak point opportunity in the 12th game to win the opening set 7-5.     The Frenchman then needed a second set tiebreak to finally put the Italian away 7-5 7-6(5).     Later, Argentina’s Sebastian Baez proved too much for Chinese hope Zhang. The Chinese wildcard did snag the first set, but Baez pulled through to win 2-6 6-3 6-4 in just over two hours.     Fabian Marozsan also advanced in three sets over Switzerland’s Stan Wawrinka.     The Hungarian chalked up his 24th tour-level win of the season, a career best, when he put away the former world number three 6-1 4-6 6-4.      And Croatia’s Marin Cilic held off Nikolaz Basilashvili of Georgia 6-3 7-6(5) to advance to the second round.
