Stefanos Tsitsipas has closed out his game against Sebastian Baez at the Australian Open, claiming a 7-6, 6-7, 6-3, 6-4 win.
Tsitsipas hit 12 aces to five, but had to work for his win. He had 18 break-point chances but only took four, really taking until the third set to hit his straps.
“A lot of fighting. A little bit of swearing,” Tsitsipas said about the match in his on-court interview.
He will play the winner of Grigor Dimitrov and Benoit Paire. Paire leads 6-4, 6-4, 6-7, 7-6 in that clash on Court 3.
