Monday October 16
We note the qualifications for the main draw of Benjamin Bonzi and Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard, however Titouan Droguet was eliminated.
Following with the first matches of T1, 1/16 finals, with David Goffin, we imagine him motivated, who inflicted a dry 6/4 6/1 on Quentin Halys. Grégoire Barrère takes out the Colombian Daniel Elahi Galan 6/1 7/6.
Mark Lajal, the Estonian hope, invited, takes out Jaume Munar (ESP) 6/3 6/4. And Hugo Gaston quite unexpectedly eliminates Arthur Rinderknech 7/6 (7) 6/4.

Thursday October 19
Continuation of the 1/8 finals with a big blow from Hugo Gaston. Yet much better on clay, the Frenchman will bring out the TDS 2 Jan Lennard Struff at the end of the suspense 5/7 7/6 (5) 7/6 (11), saving 3 match points in the last tie break.

Friday October 20, the 1/4 finals
Stefanos Tsitsipas ???????? vs Yannick Hanfmann ???????? : 6/3 6/3
The Greek tenor, who dreams of becoming world No. 1 at the same time as his “Paula”, passes the Hanfmann obstacle with flying colors.
Arthur Son ???????? vs Juan Pablo Varillas ????????: 6/0 6/3
Favorite of this meeting, the young Habs talent pulverized the Peruvian.
Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard ???????? vs Alexander Bublik ???????? : 4/6 6/4 2/6
The French giant held out for two matches before his level of play dropped significantly.
Maximilian Marterer ???????? vs Hugo Gaston ???????? : 6/3 6/2
Coming out of qualifying, ultra motivated, the 28-year-old German was enormous behind his first ball (91% points won) and efficient on the return games.
…
Saturday October 21, the 1/2 finals
Stefanos Tsitsipas ???????? vs Arthur Son ????????: 6/7 (5) 6/7 (4)
What a monumental feat achieved this evening in Stockholm by the Habs phenomenon. At the age of 19, he tied with the 7th in the world before proving himself the strongest in the two tie breaks.
Son, with his game as brilliant as it is varied, could even have won more easily but the pressure, inevitable for his young age, caught up with him only for a few moments at the end of the match.
Winner of the Lyon tournament in the spring, Arthur Fils, 38th in the world, is aiming for a second title.
Alexander Bublik ???????? vs Maximilian Marterer ???????? : 6/4 6/4
The sparkling Kazakh, when he wanted to, did what he wanted during this one-sided encounter. He will undoubtedly be a dangerous rival for Son in the final.
