After a high-intensity match, Ugo Humbert beat Carlos Alcaraz in three sets (6-1, 3-6, 7-5) to reach the quarter-finals of the Paris Masters 1000.

The Frenchman came through after a battle lasting over two hours. He had played a perfect first set, taking Alcaraz's serve twice.

But the Spaniard woke up, raised his game and took advantage of a few Humbert errors to win the second set.

In a high-level decisive set, both men were solid on their face-offs, but it was finally the Frenchman, transcended by the help of the Paris-Bercy crowd, who made the break at 6-5 to win the match.

Ugo Humbert will face Jordan Thompson tomorrow for a place in the semi-finals.

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.
