Ok, big mea culpa.
French tennis players are not all homeless.
Finally, not on these Olympics.
Ugo Humbert signed a major feat this Wednesday morning by defeating the Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas, seeded No. 3 in the tournament, in three sets (2-6, 7-6, 6-2) and 2:21 hours of play. French is qualified for the quarter-finals, where he will meet the Russian Karen Kachanov.
Largely dominated in the first set, our national Ugo broke away in the second to go to the tie break.
And on the set point, Tsitsipas injured his knee, then remaining for long minutes in the hands of the physiotherapist.
Faced with a diminished opponent, the third round was a formality for Humbert, who simply struggled when concluding his fourth match point, saving as many break points in the process.
