ATP Monte-CarloAt the meeting of the quarters, Tsitsipas clings to his crownYERSDAY AT 12:57Everything started very well for Stéfanos Tsitsipas. Very well back in the match from the start, the Greek did a lot of harm to his opponent. Constant, regular, aggressive, nothing seemed to be able to stop him. Schwartzman, on the other hand, had to do the punching bag for a long time before waking up. “If he plays every week, Djokovic will be ready for his goal: Roland-Garros”In the first set, Schwartzman took 5-0 from the start. Too imprecise, the Argentinian only gave away free points while Tsitsipas seemed insurmountable. Despite a burst of pride at the end of the set, he could not overthrow his opponent. 6-2 for Tsitsipas. And Tsitsipas collapsed… The second set seemed to take the same direction as the first with a Tsitsipas on fire. However, at 5-2, the Greek collapsed. Author of many faults, he gave 11 consecutive points to Schwartzman, giving him hope in this match. The Argentinian then became a real metronome from the baseline, leaving his opponent to scuttle himself. Henin: “Tsonga may leave with regrets, but above all with his head held high” Schwartzman then drove the point home in the third set by breaking his opponent twice to lead 4-0. It was then that Tsitsipas, who had been missing for an hour, appeared. Once again overwhelmed, the Greek gave absolutely nothing. Thanks to a steely mind and near-perfect baseline play, Tsitsipas finally toppled Schwartzman admirably 6-4. The defending champion qualifies thanks to this crazy match for the semi-final this Saturday. He will face the world number 3, Alexander Zverev, in the next round.
