It had indeed been 1,127 days since Tiafoe had won a match on clay against a top 30 player. His last victory in such conditions was a quarter-final match in Estoril against Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.
Without losing a single set, he will play on Sunday for a place in the quarter-finals against Daniel Altmaier, the world No. 66, who defeated Taylor Fritz in the first round.
