“Thanks to a wild card spectators will have the opportunity to see one of the biggest sensations of the season,” organisers of the Swiss indoor tournament scheduled for Oct 20-26 announced.

On Sunday, Vacherot beat his cousin Arthur Rinderknech to win the Shanghai Masters, becoming at world No.204 the lowest-ranked player to win an ATP 1000 tournament.

Paris Masters director Cedric Pioline confirmed that the 26-year-old Monegasque, now ranked 40, had submitted an invitation request for the tournament in the French capital which starts on Oct 27.
