Shanghai Masters top seed Carlos Alcaraz fought through what he called "one of the toughest matches this year" to make the tournament's final 16 on Monday, beating Britain's Daniel Evans 7-6 (7/1), 6-4. The Spaniard is the only one of the tournament's top four seeds left after Stefanos Tsitsipas of Greece crashed out in a late-night match to France's Ugo Humbert 6-4, 3-6, 7-5. Alcaraz' nearly two-and-a-half-hour match was ferociously physical, with 33rd-ranked Evans giving as good as he got, leading at one point by three games in the first set. But over the course of prolonged and sometimes scrappy rallies that left spectators gasping and groaning, the world number two gradually assumed control, comprehensively winning the first-set tiebreaker.
BEIJING: Second-ranked Carlos Alcaraz eased to his 12th semifinal appearance of the season with a 6-4, 6-2 win over seventh-seeded Casper Ruud at the China Open on Monday.
Carlos Alcaraz sealed a spot in the men's semi-finals of the China Open with a straight-sets victory over Norway's Casper Ruud in Beijing on Monday. The world number two triumphed 6-4, 6-2 to set up a semi-final clash with either Jannik Sinner or Grigor Dimitrov. Alcaraz shook off an early break of serve to overpower the world number nine, eventually seizing an attritional first set with a 40-0 service game. He then took control, breaking twice without reply in set two before finally forcing Ruud to slice a backhand into the net. "To be able to win these kinds of matches the way I did gives you extra confidence in your game," Alcaraz said at a post-match news conference.
