On Friday, Swedish tennis star Mikael Ymer reached the quarter-finals of the ATP tournament in Metz, France.

He faced the Swiss Stan Wawrinka - who won three Grand Slam titles, was world number three and has suffered major injury problems in recent years.

Ymer offered the profile a real match.

Everything was decided in a tiebreak in the third set.

There, Wawrinka won 7–5 (6–4, 4–6, 7–6).

- It was really tough physically.

I had to toil.

It was a good level in the match, says the 37-year-old in Eurosport.

He now faces the winner of the match between Denmark's Holger Rune and Alexander Bublik from Kazakhstan.
