Alcaraz saves match points to reach Paris Masters semis
The seven-time Grand Slam champion fought back to defeat Taylor Fritz 6-7 (10/12), 7-5, 6-3.
In Paris, Spain's Carlos Alcaraz staged a remarkable comeback, saving two match points to defeat Taylor Fritz in the Paris Masters quarter-finals. The 23-year-old Spanish tennis star won 6-7 (10/12), 7-5, 6-3, advancing to his first semi-final at the 1000-level event. Alcaraz's victory mirrored his unforgettable French Open final win last year, in which he saved three championship points.
The loss for world number 12 Fritz also ended his chances of reaching the ATP Finals. Alcaraz's 20-year-old countryman Rafael Jodar will make his debut at the ATP Finals, following an impressive first season on the pro tour.
