Carlos Alcaraz rallies past Taylor Fritz in Paris semis; ATP Finals set

ملخص مفصل

On two occasions, Fritz was one point away from moving past Spain's Rafael Jodar and into the final slot in the eight-man ATP Finals in Turin, Italy later this month.

Spain's Carlos Alcaraz performs at his very best when his back is against the wall.

The world's No. 3-ranked player trailed a desperate Taylor Fritz by a set and a break and faced two match points in the second set in the Rolex Paris Masters on Friday.

The seven-time Grand Slam champion saved a match point while serving at 3-5 and another with Fritz serving for the match at 5-4. Alcaraz broke to level the set, held for 6-5 and broke again to force a decider before completing a 6-7 (10), 7-5, 6-3 victory that eliminated Fritz from ATP Finals contention.

Alcaraz will face Norway's Casper Ruud in the semifinals on Saturday. Ruud got past Portugal's Nuno Borges, 7-6 (5), 6-4.
