The first round of the men’s tennis Rolex Paris Masters (Paris, France, indoor hard, ATP Masters) was held on the 28th, and 11th seed T. Paul (USA) will participate as a wild card (recommended by the organizer). He lost in straight sets to A. Mannarino (France), ranked 58th in the world, 3-6, 5-7, and was eliminated in his first match. This loss ended Paul’s hopes of participating in the final round, the Niito ATP Finals (Torino, Italy, indoor hard).

The Niito ATP Finals is the final tournament of the season in which only the top eight players with points earned this season can participate. This year’s event is scheduled to be held from November 10th to 17th, and four athletes have already been confirmed to participate, including world No. 1 J. Sinner (Italy) and No. 2 C. Alcaraz (Spain). With only four spots remaining, the Rolex Paris Masters has begun.
Before the opening of the Rolex Paris Masters, Paul was ranked 11th in this season’s race ranking “RACE TO TURIN”. They entered this tournament with an absolute requirement to advance to the top in the tournament.
In the first round, Paul had a 67% chance of winning points with his first serve, including making five aces, but his winning rate plummeted to 33% with his second serve. He allowed Mannarino a total of five breaks and lost in straight sets in 1 hour and 42 minutes.
As a result, Paul was unable to accumulate points and was unable to rank among the top eight competitors. On the other hand, on the same day, S. Tsitsipas (Greece), who was 12th in “RACE TO TURIN”, made it through the first round. He remains hopeful of participating in the final match.
