Grigor Dimitrov had to go all the way to reach the quarter-finals of the Paris-Bercy Masters 1000. Slightly injured in the adductor muscles, the Bulgarian defeated Arthur Rinderknech after a two-hour battle (6-2, 4-6, 7-6) in a match that ended just after midnight (French time).

Dimitrov's face was marked by effort at the end of the match. And his timid celebration spoke volumes about the physical discomfort he was in (see video below).

Thanks to this victory, the Bulgarian remains in contention to qualify for the ATP Finals in Turin. But it's not going to be easy, as he'll have to overcome his fatigue and aches and pains to beat an in-form Karen Khachanov.

Dimitrov G • 8

Rinderknech A • WC

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.

What a finish this is.. I believe King has used his boost for today. Skelp is closing strong. Two wins and he claims 1st if I lose my last prediction.
