El a obţinut acest succes după ce a eliminat doi dintre favoriţi, grecul Stefanos Tsitsipas, numărul 5 mondial, şi rusul Andrei Rublev (nr. 8), înainte de a-l învinge pe Sinner, unul dintre prietenii şi partenerii săi ocazionali de dublu, pe care nu l-a mai înfruntat niciodată până acum, citează Agerpres.
