Mpetshi Perricard Muller Winston-Salem

Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard is regaining form just days before the start of the US Open.

Competing at the ATP 250 in Winston-Salem, the Frenchman battled hard yesterday to defeat Pedro Martinez (2-6, 6-3, 7-6) and faced another French player, Alexandre Müller, for a spot in the quarterfinals.

Without faltering on his serves (no break points conceded), Mpetshi Perricard defeated Müller 6-3, 6-2, aided by 27 winners and 8 aces. He had not won two consecutive matches on the ATP Tour since Brisbane at the very start of the season.

For his second quarterfinal of the year, the world No. 39 will face either Gabriel Diallo or Hamad Medjedovic.
