Taylor Fritz advanced to the men's singles third round with two tie-breaks at the ATP Shanghai Masters彩娱乐app, while Chinese youngster Zhou Yi was eliminated by Frances Tiafoe.
SHANGHAI, Oct. 7 (Xinhua) -- Taylor Fritz of the United States overcame French player Terence Atmane 7-6(4), 7-6(5) to secure an opening victory in their resumed match at the ATP Shanghai Masters on Monday.
After a rain delay on Saturday, the match resumed with Fritz leading 4-3 on serve. Following a first-set tie-break win, the American aimed for a swift victory by extending his lead to 4-2 in the second set. However, Atmane demonstrated resilience, pushing the contest into another tie-break, which Fritz ultimately won.
"I think his ability to basically hit a winner from anywhere on the court made it very tough. Because sometimes I almost felt like if I wanted to be the aggressor in the rally, I had to go on when I maybe didn't want to go on," said Fritz.
Another American, Frances Tiafoe, enjoyed a smoother win, defeating Zhou Yi 6-2, 6-4, which eliminated the last Chinese player from the men's singles.
Tiafoe praised 19-year-old Zhou for his progress, saying "He played a good match, obviously it seemed pretty one-sided, but the second set was very tough."
