Their partnership had begun with a Tokyo quarterfinal. The Shanghai breakthrough made them the first all-Austrian team to win an ATP Masters 1000 title since the series began in 1990.

For Miedler, it was the largest of his 14 tour-level doubles titles. Oberleitner claimed his second, following his August Winston-Salem success with Petr Nouza.
