Stefanos Tsitsipas into Cincinnati Masters quarter-final

·

Greek tennis star, Stefanos Tsitsipas, is into the quarter-final of the Cincinnati Masters after defeating Filip Krajinovic in straight sets 6-3, 6-3.

This was Tsitsipas’ first victory in two events, after being defeating by Nick Kyrgios in a third-round encounter at Wimbledon and later lost to Briton Jack Draper last week in Montreal.

Tsitsipas scored six love service holds, including each of his final four service games, and dropped just three points on first serve in the one-hour, nine minute match.

According to the ATP, the Greek hit 28 winners (including 14 aces) to just four unforced errors as he outclassed his opponent on Court 3.

The two-time Cincinnati semi-finalist will next face 13th seed Diego Schwartzman, who outlasted Aslan Karatsev 7-6(3), 3-6, 6-2 on Tuesday evening.
