Tsitsipas took care to prepare their reunion well. Facing an opponent he had always beaten in their first seven meetings, the Greek appeared full of confidence. And particularly tenacious in the key moments of the match. He imposed terrible pressure in return on De Minaur at 5-4 in the first set to crack the Australian and remove the first set on the first break of the match (6-4).

The 5th player in the world did not relax and he did well. Because De Minaur reacted perfectly by releasing a lot of aggressiveness at the start of the second set. Tsitsipas had to save three break points to prevent the Australian from taking the lead. In the process, he seized the face-off from his opponent to race in the lead (3-1). And the Greek only dropped a single point in his last three service games to conclude a perfectly controlled game (6-4, 6-3). He is ready for the clash against Alcaraz.
