Arthur Fils backhanded in his second set of battles Stefanos Tsitsipas.
Think it was a wake-up call.
The Frenchman took this event as a driving force and finally swept the Greeks 2-6 6-4 6-2, holding 16 rounds in Rome. When the two shake hands online, it’s time to break up from FILS. The two argued fiercely before they resolved the issue and declared “all is OK.”

“Everything is good,” said Philes, who will face it Alexander Zverev In 16 rounds. “We’re just talking about the game. Don’t worry.
“He was a great, great player, especially on clay. In the first set, he killed me. I had to find a way. I managed to break the game 4-4 with a great game and was a little lucky. But I was very happy with how the game ended. It was a tough fight and I ended up being strong.”
FILS became the second Frenchman in the history of the series, collecting 20 ATP Masters 1,000 victories after the age of 21 Richard Gasquet And improved to 4-0 vs Tsitsipas and 19-9 this season.
Two French people – also Corentin Moutet – 16 rounds to Rome for the first time in nine years.
