Alcaraz advances to Paris Masters quarterfinals after Berrettini pulls out
injured
PARIS (AP) --- Carlos Alcaraz advanced to the quarterfinals of the Paris
Masters after Matteo Berrettini withdrew from their third-round match on
Thursday due to an arm injury.
The big-serving Italian did not specify which arm but said in an Instagram post
that he has been in pain for a few days.
The second-seeded Alcaraz's quarterfinal opponent will be sixth-seeded Arthur
Fils or No. 11 Taylor Fritz, who has an outside chance of reaching the
season-ending ATP Finals in Turin. They played their third-round match later
Thursday at Plenitude Arena.
No. 12 seed Tommy Paul beat Quentin Halys 7-6 (3), 6-4 and could face fellow
American Ben Shelton next. The No. 3 seed played Frenchman Arthur Rinderknech
later Thursday.
