Gaël Monfils has advanced to the round of 16 at the Miami Masters 1000 after defeating Jaume Munar.

The match concluded in a third-set tie-break, which the Frenchman won seven points to one.

Monfils was in a precarious position, as Munar served for the match at 6-5.

With this hard-fought victory, 7-5, 5-7, 7-6, Monfils becomes the second-oldest player to reach the round of 16 in a Masters 1000 event, behind Ivo Karlovic.

This win also secures his return to the Top 25 in the ATP Race.

Next, he will face Sebastian Korda for a spot in the quarterfinals, who previously eliminated Stefanos Tsitsipas.

The two players met just two weeks ago in Indian Wells, with Monfils emerging victorious.

As federations struggle to reinvent themselves, private academies are capturing talent… but also families able to invest tens of thousands of euros a year. A system that is increasingly effective, but also increasingly unequal.

Exhausted but omnipresent stars, ever-longer tournaments and exhibitions that have become a business in their own right: tennis is revealing its deepest contradictions, torn between spectacle and physical survival.

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.
