Video - Moutet in magician mode: an irresistible point in Hangzhou in 2024

In Hangzhou last year, the French player achieved a point as spectacular as it was improbable. A brilliant inspiration that stunned his opponent, the spectators... and social media.

Corentin Moutet qualified for the semi-finals of the ATP 250 in Hangzhou this Sunday by benefiting from the retirement of Tomas Etcheverry (3-6, 3-0, ret.). The Frenchman ideally kicks off his Asian tour, unlike last year when he was knocked out in the first round of the same tournament by Roberto Carballes Baena (7-6, 6-1).

However, he had delivered one of the points of the year by successfully making a drop shot half-volley behind his back. A masterful shot that, however, did not allow him to get back into the match.
