Jannik Sinner defeated Novak Djokovic in the final, 7–6(7–4), 6–3 to win the singles tennis title at the 2024 Shanghai Masters. It was his fourth ATP 1000 singles title, seventh title of the season, and 17th career title. By reaching the final, Sinner secured the year-end No. 1 ranking for the first time in his career. Djokovic reached a record-extending 59th career ATP 1000 final.
Hubert Hurkacz was the reigning champion, but withdrew before the tournament began due to a knee injury.
With his second-round win, Wu Yibing became the second-ever Chinese player in tournament history to reach the third round (after Zhizhen Zhang). The second-round match between Tomás Martín Etcheverry and Botic van de Zandschulp, which lasted 3 hours and 43 minutes, was the longest in the tournament's history.
