French Open Status 6.1: Musetti eliminates Rooney, Aka fights Sheldon, Paulo Tiya advances

2 seed Alcalas defeated Sheldon 7-6 (8)/6-3/4-6/6-4. This is the most exciting game at this French Open so far. I never expected Sheldon to perform so well in clay court. Especially in the first set, the game was exciting. It was very regrettable that he was in the tiebreaker. He was originally leading all the way, but in the end he was taken the lead by Alcalas and won the first set.

If the gap is said, Alcalas is calmer at critical moments and makes fewer mistakes.

8 seed Musetti defeated Rooney 7-5/3-6/6-3/6-2 (10). This is a showdown between the two seed players ranked closest to this French Open, and it is a huge test for each other. Musetti performed stably, and after being scored by Rooney in the second set, he performed very calmly, and finally won two sets in a row to win the game.

Rone's performance after being broken in the third set was in a poor manner, which is very different from his previous style of becoming more and more courageous when facing unfavorable situations. It seems that my brain is down. Some regrets.

Two other games, No. 12 seed Paul defeated Popelin 6-3/6-3/6-3, and No. 15 seed Tiafoe defeated Altmeier 6-3/6-4-7-6 (4) and advanced to the quarterfinals together.

1/4 finals vs. (second half of the zone)

Currently, there are no American players in the first half of the zone, so Paul and Thiafoe are the only two players to enter the quarterfinals of this French Open. Such results are quite good. Perhaps, the hat of "American players are not good at clay" should be taken off.

Of course, most of the American players in the seeds are concentrated in the lower half, including Fritz (4), Paul (12), Sheldon (13), Tiafoe (15), and Koda (23). After the No. 7 seed Rude was eliminated early due to injury, the American player was a relatively strong player in the lottery.

Mussetti played against Tiafu, with a 2:3 match and a 1:0 match in clay field.

Alcalas vs. Paul, with a 4:2 record in the clay field, and a 1:0 record in the clay field.

Does the two American players have a chance to advance to the semi-finals?
