Canadian 19 year old Denis Shapovalov has been confirmed for a second appearance in the city this summer.

The world number 30 joins the likes of 10th ranked John Isner, Australian Open semi finalist Hyeon Chung, French star Gael Monfils and former top 10 stalwart Tomas Berdych.

Tournament director Karl Budge says Shapovalov is one of the most sought after players on tour.

He says he's beaten the likes of Nadal and Del Potro and is the youngest player to make a Masters 1000 semi final.
