Tsitsipas digs deep to reach Paris Masters quarter-finals

·

Stefanos Tsitsipas, the No 10 seed, beat Argentinian Francisco Cerundolo 6-7 (1), 6-4, 6-2 to advance to the quarter-finals of Paris Masters at the Accor Arena on Thursday.

The Greek came back from a set down to eventually prevail in three sets against the Argentine.

Tsitsipas shifted to a more aggressive approach at the beginning of the second set, and was rewarded in the third game when he secured his first break. From there, the Greek further raised his level to surge to victory.

With the victory, Tsitsipas climbed to 11th in the PIF ATP Live Race To Turin, but he will need a run to the final to stay in contention.

He will face a tough task in the next round as he takes on German Alexander Zverev, the No 3 seed, in the quarter-finals.
