Altmaier clinches a topsy-turvy game
Catch up on our live coverage from the fourth round at Roland Garros, after Frances Tiafoe also joined Tommy Paul in the last eight Getty Images The fourth round of the 2025 French Open is halfway done, with two American stars into the quarterfinals at Roland Garros in Paris. Carlos Alcaraz (2) beat Ben Shelton in four sets, but Frances Tiafoe (15) has joined fellow American Tommy Paul (12) in the quarters. Lorenzo Musetti (8) booked the final spot in the quarters after beating Holger Rune (10) on Philippe-Chatrier in the night session. It's Aryna Sabalenka (1) vs. Zheng Qinwen (8) and Iga Świątek (5) vs. Elina Svitolina (13) in the women's singles last eight after their wins today.

Connect the terms Find the hidden link between sports terms Daniel Altmaier plays the kind of service game that a man who has gotten up 5-2 before being pulled back to 5-5 is likely to play. He does some of the things that got him to 5-2, like hitting a thunderous ace, but then does some of the things that got him to 5-5, like a checked-out behind-the-back flick. At 40-40, a forehand down the line and an ace down the T take him to 6-5, and Tiafoe will serve to stay in the set again. A lot of tension on Court Suzanne-Lenglen as Altmaier shunts a tight one-handed backhand into the net, before doing the same off a return off serve to put Tiafoe 30-0 up. The American is quickly to 40-0, and another tired looking backhand from the German finds the net. Tiafoe is back at 5-5, arresting a surge from Altmaier, who looked ready to send this match into a fourth set. A big test of the German's mettle now. Tiafoe 6-3. 6-4, *4-5 Altmaier Having looked like he was cruising against the German clay-court specialist, Frances Tiafoe is serving to stay in the third set on Court Suzanne-Lenglen. Altmaier has an unusually good record against high-ranked players at Roland Garros, with a 3-7 record against top-20 players at Grand Slams but a 3-0 record in the French capital. It would be a tall order for him to continue that record from two sets down, but he's giving Tiafoe some issues in the third. Up 5-3, Altmaier pins Tiafoe in the ad court corner with a series of slices, before a topspin backhand (a mishit, really) jumps off the line and forces Tiafoe to swing a backhand long. A serve-plus-one brings him to 30-15, but Tiafoe digs out a skidding slice that Altmaier can only scoop wide. Come 30-30, Tiafoe pinches a break point with a flashing return winner before a lucky net cord off a backhand down the line secures the break. Lorenzo Musetti (8) vs. Holger Rune (10) A match for the clay-court purists will close out the action on the main stadium for day eight at Roland Garros. Lorenzo Musetti and Holger Rune have very different gamestyles, but both players thrive on the red dirt for very different reasons. Musetti is all soft hands and touch, with a revving topspin forehand and a one-handed backhand that could hang in any one of Paris' art museums. He's also one of the great artists on both natural surfaces (clay and grass). His wind-up on his groundstrokes in rallies can be long, which means he sometimes gets rushed, but the clay takes some of that away. More intentionally, his return game is a buffet of chips and blocks, with the Italian abbreviating that wind-up and forcing servers to move forward with the ball skidding low to the court. Rune is more of a baseliner, a curious fish who thrives in completely opposing conditions: the slow, high bounce of clay and the wind-less skid of indoor hard courts. Like Musetti, the clay courts give him time to produce his groundstrokes, but this skews heavily to his forehand, which is a bit of a stop-start shot compared to his backhand, which is one of the purest in the men's game. The head to head is 2-0 in Rune's favor, but they are yet to meet on clay. 'First of all, I think we both have huge respect for each other, every time we face each other we bring up the level to a top,' Alcaraz says on court. 'I think we played a really great tennis, a really complete one. Big shots, forehands, serves. We stayed there the whole match. For me it's great having Ben around, it's great for tennis and for the people. I love watching him play. 'Today I fought against myself, the mind ... Today in some moments I was mad, I was angry with myself, talking not really good things. Just really happy that I didn't let those thoughts play against me. I just tried to calm myself in those moments I was down and I managed to get going.' Getty Images Alcaraz 7-6(8), 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 Shelton Shelton may have mixed the solid and the spectacular, but no one in men's tennis does it like Alcaraz — even if he throws in some lapses of concentration too. He moves up 30-0, but a weak second shot and a double fault open the door for Shelton to put him under some pressure. Alcaraz responds by scrambling to a net cord and feathering a drop shot into Shelton's backhand side, which the American can't dig up. Alcaraz then smashes an inside-in forehand past the American on match point to set up a quarterfinal against Tommy Paul. Shelton deserves a lot of credit for hanging with Alcaraz, proving again that he has upped his rally tolerance and tried to rely less on the highlight reel points for which both of these players are known. He's just a little far away from Alcaraz in almost every department still. Alcaraz 7-6(8), 6-3, 4-6, *5-4 Shelton Shelton has mixed the solid and the spectacular against the defending champion, playing some highlight reel winners but also digging in and embracing the need to make his weaknesses work for him to have any chance of winning this match. He'll have to do so again as Alcaraz serves for a place in the quarterfinals. The two American men on court are in very different places in their respective matches. No. 15 seed Frances Tiafoe is two sets up on Daniel Altmaier, who knocked out Taylor Fritz, the top American man, in the first round. Altmaier has just returned to the court after going off to collect his thoughts. If Tiafoe were to win in three, he would make it 12 sets in a row on the Roland Garros clay — a perfect record that few would have predicted at the start of the event. Ben Shelton is trying to claw back the fourth set against Carlos Alcaraz, down 5-3 and serving to stay in the match. ...plenty of intriguing match-ups. Top seeds Mate Pavic/Lyudmyla Kichenok are up against UK/U.S. pair Neal Skupski/Desirae Krawczyk, while Marcelo Arévalo/Zhang Shuai (2) face Giuliana Olmos and Lloyd Glasspool. Americans Evan King/Taylor Townsend (4) are challenging last year's winners Édouard Roger-Vasselin and Laura Siegemund, with Brits Olivia Nicholls and Henry Patten playing Sara Errani/Andrea Vavassori (3). Getty Images Tiafoe 6-3, *4-3 Altmaier With Shelton's match in the balance, his U.S. compatriot Frances Tiafoe (15) is finding things easier against the unseeded Daniel Altmaier. He took the first set 6-3 thanks to two early breaks and has just broken the German to go 4-3 up in the second too. Big Foe serving to make it 5-3. Getty Images Americans Taylor Townsend/Evan King (4) beat French pair Estelle Cascino/Geoffrey Blancaneaux 6-3, 7-5. But U.S. duo Christian Harrison/Nicole Melichar-Martinez were eliminated by champions Édouard Roger-Vasselin/Laura Siegemund 3-6, 6-4, 10-8. Third seeds Sara Errani/Andrea Vavassori of Italy got past Robert Galloway/Jiang Xinyu 6-3, 7-5 too. Getty Images Shelton's to-do list this year included: 'Be more than a below average returner'. He got that set with the sort of return he has been trying to do more. Blocking the ball deep and getting into the point and forcing the opponent to hit a decent plus-one shot. Alcaraz muffed it. Set Shelton. On they go. It was getting hard not to feel for Ben Shelton. He's played some superb tennis, some of it flashy and outrageous and some of it controlled and stubborn. For all of his efforts, he was two sets down and a break point down in that third set before he pulled it out. It's a match reminiscent of his Australian Open semifinal against world No. 1 Jannik Sinner, in which he served for the first set and had two set points before being broken and succumbing in a tiebreak. He had a set point in the opener here, too. This time, he's managed to convert one, but he now needs to win two sets in a row against the defending champion. Good luck, Ben. Getty Images Shelton 6-7(8), 3-6, 6-4 Alcaraz After Shelton broke Alcaraz and Alcaraz broken back immediately, the pair exchanged service games. Shelton leading 5-4 on serve, Alcaraz needing to hold to stay alive in this third set. 15-40 down, two set points to Shelton after a bit of good luck for which he apologises! One saved... but not the second! A massive forehand, all of 107 miles per hour, sees Shelton take it 6-4! The last four fourth-round matches take place tomorrow in the women's singles, with loads of U.S. interest. Madison Keys (7) faces Hailey Baptiste in an all-American clash, while Coco Gauff (2) plays Ekaterina Alexandrova (20) and Jessica Pegula (3), pictured, clashes with the unseeded Lois Boisson of France. Mirra Andreeva (6) is up against Daria Kasatkina (17). Aryna Sabalenka (1) beat U.S. hope Amanda Anisimova (16) in straight sets, 7-5, 6-3, and she will play Zheng Qinwen (8), who got past Liudmila Samsonova (19), 7-6(5), 1-6, 6-3. Defending champion Iga Świątek (5) lost the first set but came back to win 1-6, 6-3, 7-5 against Elena Rybakina (12). Her quarterfinal will be against Elina Svitolina (13), who eliminated Jasmine Paolini (4) with a 4-6, 7-6(6), 6-1 victory.

But at 15-40 in his next service game, Carlos Alcaraz has two break back points... and takes it! What a disappointment for Shelton to be pegged back immediately.

Tennis gets the Iga Swiatek vs. Aryna Sabalenka showdown the WTA Tour craved
ROLAND GARROS, PARIS — Iga Świątek and Aryna Sabalenka, the most successful women's tennis players of this decade, will meet in the French Open semifinals Thursday in what is only their second meeting at a Grand Slam, and their first anywhere in 10 months. Both were straight-sets winners in their quarterfinal matches Tuesday, with Świątek beating Ukraine's Elina Svitolina 6-1, 7-5 after Sabalenka, the world No. 1, got past Zheng Qinwen, who won Olympic gold on these courts last year, 7-6(3), 6-3. Advertisement It'll be the first time the two have met at a major since the 2022 U.S. Open, which was before Sabalenka won her first one. She has since won three, moving her to within two of Świątek's total of five. Four of those have come at Roland Garros, including all of the last three. Their last meeting, in Cincinnati last August, was a one-sided win for Sabalenka, but their meeting at the Madrid Open three months earlier was the best women's match of 2024. Świątek ended up winning a barnstorming final 7-5, 4-6, 7-6(7), saving three championship points in a pulsating contest that lasted more than three hours. Świątek and Sabalenka are the only two world No. 1s since April 2022, with the former holding the top spot for 125 weeks compared to her rival's 41, but it's the Belarusian who has been at the top of the rankings since last October. Świątek is currently down at No. 5 having not won a title since last year's French Open, but those four Roland Garros titles are a reminder that beating her here is one of the toughest tasks in tennis. Svitolina found that out Tuesday, playing at close to her best level for long stretches of the match but ultimately succumbing in straight sets. That tends to be the way of things with Świątek's wins here. Sunday's thrilling win over Elena Rybakina, another heavyweight opponent Świątek has played too rarely at majors, was an exception — her semifinal against Sabalenka ought to be also. Sabalenka had to dig deep to reach the semis, edging past Zheng, the No. 8 seed, who led by a break in the first set and was every bit her equal in the opening exchanges. Pinching the first set on a tie-break after 73 minutes was critical, giving the Sabalenka the platform to then overwhelm her opponent in the second set. Poor officiating threatened to overshadow the match at a critical juncture in the first set. With Sabalenka serving at 5-6, 30-30, she hit a backhand that looked to have drifted long — so much so that Zheng stopped the point, despite there being no out call. Advertisement Unlike at the combined ATP and WTA events on clay and every other surface, including the other three Grand Slams, the French Open doesn't use electronic line calling (ELC) and instead relies on line judges. The chair umpire also inspects ball marks as a back-up. On this occasion, the umpire got off her chair to inspect the mark, and backed up the line judge's call, but television replays using Hawk-Eye technology showed that the ball had actually been 7mm out. ELC has a margin of error, but it is smaller than 7mm. The French Tennis Federation (FFT) president Gilles Moretton said last week that Roland Garros was resisting ELC because of the country's world-leading officials, but given the speed at which Sabalenka's ball was traveling, it should have been relatively easy for the line judge to track. Zheng was able to hold her serve with a ripping backhand pass down the line, so the incorrect call didn't have a material impact on the match, but it's an embarrassing look for the sport that such a critical call at a Grand Slam could have been botched like that. There were a couple of further wrong calls that were at least correctly overruled by the umpire. The FFT did not respond to a request for comment on the officiating errors from the match. The blockbuster semifinal between Świątek and Sabalenka is the most exciting match in either draw so far, in a tournament that has been overshadowed by the women once again continually being denied the most prominent court allocations. For the second successive year, no women's matches have been scheduled in the night session, and on every day it's been a women's match opening up Court Phillipe-Chatrier — a slot when the stadium is at its least full and often more than half-empty. That was the case for Sabalenka's match against Zheng, which started at 11 a.m. local time and was pretty much empty in the lower tiers for the duration. 'It was a big match and probably would make more sense to put us a little bit later just so more people could watch it,' Sabalenka said in a news conference afterwards. 'I definitely think that would make more sense to kind of like move our match for a little bit later.' Sabalenka added her voice to leading players like Świątek, Coco Gauff, Madison Keys and Jessica Pegula, who have questioned why women have never been given the primetime night slot on Chatrier. Tournament director Amélie Mauresmo's justification is that men's matches are longer and so offer spectators better value for money. Advertisement 'I definitely have to say that we deserve the equal treatment,' Sabalenka said. 'There was a lot of great battles, a lot of great matches, which would be cool to see as, like, night session, just more people in the stands watching these incredible battles. And just to show ourselves to more people. 'So, yeah, I definitely agree that we deserve to be put in a bigger stage, you know, like better timing, more people watching.' Thursday afternoon's match will nevertheless see the defining women's players of the past few years go head to head on one of the biggest stages of all. 'She has a game for every surface,' Świątek said in her on-court interview of her great rival and next opponent. 'I need to focus on myself, do the work, be brave in my shots and just go for it. For sure it's going to be a tough match. I'm happy for a challenge.' 'I love those challenges,' Sabalenka said. 'And I'm always excited to face someone strong and someone who can challenge me … I go out there and I fight, and I'm ready to leave everything I have to get the win.' (Top photos: Getty Images)

Titleholder Swiatek to face No. 1 Sabalenka in semis after 26th straight win at Roland-Garros
Associated Press PARIS (AP) — Four-time champion Iga Swiatek's 26th successive win at Roland-Garros set up a French Open semifinal clash against top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka on Tuesday. Swiatek defeated Elina Svitolina 6-1, 7-5 to extend her impressive run. The consecutive wins record on the Parisian red clay is Chris Evert's 29. Having been searching for her best form in recent months, Swiatek, who struggled in the previous round, was in total control in the opening set. She was made to work harder by her 13th-seeded Ukrainian rival in the second set, dropping her serve in the fourth game after hitting two straight unforced errors into the net. But Swiatek broke back immediately and took advantage of Svitolina's poor service game to break again with a thunderous forehand return and move up 6-5. Swiatek sealed the win with a final ace. Swiatek dropped outside the top four before the French Open and has not won a title or reached a final since her victory at Roland-Garros last year. Sabalenka back into semifinals Sabalenka defeated Zheng Qinwen in straight sets to reach the semifinals for the second time. Chasing her first title at Roland-Garros, Sabalenka overcame a shaky start and windy conditions to prevail 7-6 (3), 6-3 and extend her record against the Olympic champion to 7-1. The score did not fully reflect the closeness of the quarterfinal, though, with so little separating the rivals. But Sabalenka demonstrated why she was No. 1, making the difference on big points, while Zheng struggled with her serve in tense moments. Sabalenka will try to reach her sixth Grand Slam final, and first at Roland-Garros. Sabalenka lost her most recent match against Zheng last month in Rome, having previously dominated their first six encounters. She said that loss was actually a good thing in the middle of an already exhausting season. "I was actually glad I lost that match, because I needed a little break before Roland-Garros,' Sabalenka said. 'Today, I was just more fresh. I was ready to battle, I was ready to leave everything I had on court to get this win.' Sabalenka, a three-time major champion, has yet to drop a set in Paris. Zheng started strong on Court Philippe-Chatrier, breaking early and dominating with aggressive play. However, two double faults in the eighth game allowed Sabalenka to break back and shift the momentum. A misjudged call by Zheng in the 12th game nearly cost her, but she fought off a set point to force a tiebreaker. Sabalenka remained more consistent and secured the set after Zheng hit long on a drop shot. Zheng saved a break point with an overhead shot in the fifth game of the second set, but Sabalenka's powerful backhand return pinned her down on the next one, allowing the top-ranked player to move ahead 3–2. Zheng did not go down without a fight, though, and broke back immediately, only to drop her two last service games. The loss ended a run of 10 consecutive match wins for Zheng at Roland-Garros, dating to last summer's Olympic Games. ___ AP tennis: in this topic
