The first men's round of 16 match took place this Sunday morning on Court Suzanne Lenglen between Alexei Popyrin and Tommy Paul. The American, favored in this encounter, lived up to expectations by winning with a score of 6-3, 6-3, 6-3.

Popyrin was particularly ineffective on break points, converting only one out of the ten he earned. Paul, on the other hand, showed great efficiency by converting five of his six break opportunities.

He will face either Carlos Alcaraz or Ben Shelton in the quarterfinals, who will play later this Sunday.

Since February 2022 and the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, Ukrainian sport has been heavily affected by human, structural and economic losses. Tennis has, of course, not been spared.

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.
