Tsitsipas secured his spot in the quarterfinals by defeating Korda in the ATP 500 tournament in Barcelona. After a tightly contested first set and a tie-break, the Greek player took control over the American to win in straight sets (7-6, 6-4).

The 26-year-old, however, committed 15 unforced errors across both sets and converted only one of seven break points. In his opening match, the 2021 Roland-Garros finalist had a straightforward victory against Opelka (6-2, 6-2).

Now ranked 19th in the world, he will aim to secure a semifinal spot in a clay-court tournament this year. The native of Karditsa, Greece, was previously eliminated by Musetti in the Monte-Carlo quarterfinals (1-6, 6-3, 6-4).

This season, his best performance came in Dubai, where he claimed the trophy in a dominant final against Auger-Aliassime (6-3, 6-3).

He will face Arthur Fils in the quarterfinals.

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.
