[1/5] Tennis - ATP Masters 1000 - Paris Masters - AccorHotels Arena, Paris, France - November 3, 2023 Greece's Stefanos Tsitsipas speaks to the crowd after winning his quarter final match against Russia's Karen Khachanov REUTERS/Stephanie Lecocq Acquire Licensing RightsPARIS, Nov 3 (Reuters) - Stefanos Tsitsipas maintained his stunning form at the Paris Masters with a 6-3 6-4 defeat of Russia's Karen Khachanov to reach the semi-finals on Friday. He will now face Grigor Dimitrov for a place in the final after the Bulgarian beat Hubert Hurkacz 6-1 4-6 6-4. Seventh seed Tsitsipas is yet to drop a set this week in disposing of Canada's Felix Auger-Aliassime, Germany's Alexander Zverev and now Khachanov. He had far too much variety for Khachanov in the opening set, using his all-court game and accurate serving to great effect. He then moved a break ahead in the second set before Khachanov hit a brief purple patch to get back on terms.

The 23-year-old Australian fired 11 aces against his second-seeded opponent to wrap up the biggest victory of his career. "I played really well, really solid.

Miomir Kecmanovic overcame Australian Christopher O'Connell 6-4 6-4 and could play Daniil Medvedev in the second round if the third-seeded Russian gets past Italian Lorenzo Sonego on Tuesday. Also in action on the second day of the tournament are Djokovic, Denis Shapovalov, Jannik Sinner, Andy Murray and Karen Khachanov.
Djokovic managing wrist issue, ATP Finals remains his goal

"I have been struggling with my right wrist for the last four, five days, to be honest. His Wimbledon victory guarantees him a spot in the Tour-ending Finals if he remains ranked in the world's top 20. Djokovic, who is currently ranked seventh, said the wrist issue could be due to a combination of factors. "You always have to generate a lot of wrist action and speed, which could be the case why I have been feeling soreness."
Auger-Aliassime produced a masterful performance at a packed O2 Arena, holding off a Djokovic comeback in the second set to clinch Team World's second victory of the day. Earlier, Auger-Aliassime and Jack Sock had come from a set down to beat Andy Murray and Matteo Berrettini 2-6 6-3 10-8. Tiafoe can give Team World an unassailable lead if he beats Stefanos Tsitsipas in the penultimate match. Should Team World, captained by John McEnroe, come out victorious it would be a massive turnaround after they lost 14-1 last year in Boston.
