Alcaraz and Shelton advance to Paris Masters semifinals

Overview

Carlos Alcaraz has advanced to his first career Paris Masters semifinal following a three-set comeback victory against Taylor Fritz. The Spaniard, currently ranked world number 3, overcame two match points in the second set to win 6-7(10), 7-5, 6-3 at the Plenitude Arena. This victory marks Alcaraz’s seventh consecutive win on the circuit. He is scheduled to face Casper Ruud, who secured his semifinal spot by defeating Nuno Borges 7-6(5), 6-4.

Fritz’s defeat has eliminated him from contention for the season-ending ATP Finals in Turin. Consequently, the final qualifying spot for the tournament has gone to Spain’s Rafa Jodar. Other confirmed participants for the ATP Finals include Alexander Zverev, Ben Shelton, Daniil Medvedev, Flavio Cobolli, Arthur Fils, and Frances Tiafoe.

In the other semifinal, Ben Shelton reached the final four after defeating Tommy Paul 6-4, 4-6, 6-3. Shelton is set to play against France’s Luca van Assche, who advanced by beating Rinky Hijikata 6-4, 6-7(4), 7-5. Earlier in the tournament, Alcaraz reached the quarterfinals following the withdrawal of Matteo Berrettini, who cited arm pain. The competition also saw the exits of Novak Djokovic, Alexander Zverev, and Daniil Medvedev.
