Stefanos Tsitsipas has reached the French Open quarter-final for the fourth time after a comeback on Sunday against Italian Matteo Arnaldi.
Tsitsipas trailed Arnaldi 3-6, 3-5 but saved three set points on serve at 3-5 before he fended off another in the next game to break back for 5-5. The Greek then closed out the set and powered to a 3-6, 7-6(4), 6-2, 6-2 victory.
“I had to push today. It was one of the craziest comebacks I have had,” Tsitsipas said after the match.
Ninth seeded Tsitsipas will next face third seed Carlos Alcaraz in the quarter-final. The Spaniard Alcaraz defeated Tsitsipas in the quarter-final stage in Paris last season.
