Son relieved but cautious: "Let's not get carried away".
Arthur Fils reached the final of an ATP 500 for the first time in his young career this Sunday on the clay courts of Hamburg. This is already a source of satisfaction for the 20-year-old Frenchman, who will be ranked at least 23rd in the world on Monday, his highest ranking.
He could even climb to 22nd if he wins today. But his task will be complicated by the fact that he'll be up against world No. 4 and local hero Alexander Zverev. Happy to see his efforts finally rewarded, Fils remained cautious, explaining that his aim is to find consistency.
Arthur Fils: "I've been working very hard since the start of the season. It didn't pay off at Roland-Garros, but I knew it would pay off at some point. I'm playing well now, but we mustn't get carried away. The aim is to keep playing my best tennis. "
