Face the cheat day. Rain may join, Toronto’s quarterfinal elimination against the American is recent tommy paulthat he will rejoin the current tournament in the round of 16, and his new rival, the Australian, has yet to be measured. jordan thompson.
The ‘Aussie’, 29 years old and world number 55, will not enter the group of serious opponents, but he will be among those who will force him to do a good job. This was taken in Cincinnati, as he had to play three games to reach the second round with Alcaraz.
