Auger-Aliassime dismisses Tiafoe, Rune against the ogre Alcaraz… Follow the quarter-finals

Of the first eight seeds of the tournament, there are only four left when it comes to playing the quarter-finals of the Paris-Bercy Masters 1000. World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz takes on Denmark’s Holger Rune on Friday, November 4, in the youth match. The two nuggets of world tennis are both 19 years old. Before this promising shock, Félix Auger-Aliassime (seeded n°8), who retired Gilles Simon, got rid of Frances Tiafoe without trembling, against whom he never lost in three confrontations.

In the evening, Novak Djokovic, seeded n ° 6 of the tournament and six times winner at Bercy, finds Lorenzo Musetti, who fell Casper Ruud in the previous round. The Italian gave the Serb a hard time at Roland-Garros last year, before collapsing physically (6-7, 6-7, 6-1, 6-0, 4-0, retirement). The last meeting of the evening opposes the Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas (seeded n ° 5), who put an end to the adventure of Corentin Moutet, to the American Tommy Paul, who fell for Rafael Nadal in the French capital.
