Top seed Stefanos Tsitsipas withstood a spirited challenge from Aussie Jordan Thompson on Thursday at the Citi Open, saving a set point in the second set to prevail under the lights 6-3, 7-6(4).
The victory puts the #NextGenATP Greek into his 10th ATP Tour quarter-final of the season. Tsitsipas seeks his third ATP Tour title of the year after prevailing in Marseille (d. Kukushkin) and Estoril (d. Cuevas). He'll next take on fifth-seeded American John Isner or No. 10 seed Benoit Paire of France. Tsitsipas is winless against both Paire (0-1) and Isner (0-2) in their FedEx ATP Head2Head rivalries.
More to come...
