Tsitsipas maintained his composure, though, and stuck to his game plan. “I was so nervous at the end but the crowd was amazing for me the whole match, the whole tournament.

Danish teenager Holger Rune has eliminated 2021 French Open runner-up Stefanos Tsitsipas to reach his first major quarter-final in his Roland Garros debut.
But organizers have made it the marquee night match on Day 10, scheduled to start at 8:45 p.m., after negotiating with rights-holding broadcasters to ensure all viewers in France can watch coverage of the match for free. The 12th-seeded Hurkacz was a semifinalist at Wimbledon last year. Then he needed to save three break points before serving out the biggest victory of his career. He had lost in the first round of the French Open in three consecutive appearances. Rune had a bit of trouble closing things out against Tsitsipas after going up 5-2 in the fourth set. The eighth-seeded Ruud is the first man from Norway to get to the round of eight at the French Open.
The brash Danish teenager caused a big upset by knocking out last year's runner-up at Roland Garros.
He believes that Alcaraz deserves it all and he is focused on himself: “I’m going at my own pace, at my own kind of way, and improving at my own time,” he said. He claimed his first ATP title in Munich this month as a wildcard and this result will propel him into the top 30. Between his recent 0-3 record against Alcaraz and a new defeat against Rune, Tsitsipas is now learning what it feels like to have a target on his back: “These kids are going to want to beat me badly because obviously they are chasing,” he said. He led 5-2 with two breaks, only to lose eight points in a row and find himself desperately trying to hold on to his lead. In the process, the bottom half of the men’s draw has swung wide open. Holger Rune caused the biggest upset of the men’s draw so far as the 19-year-old outplayed Stefanos Tsitsipas 7-5, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 to reach a grand slam quarter-final for the first time in his career on his French Open debut.

“I was struggling a lot the last couple of days in terms of finding my rhythm,” he said. I mean it is so great to still be here.” I told myself to keep at it and play my plan. “Now comes a new and young player who deserves a lot of attention, but I have the feeling that the other players are being ignored.” “I was very nervous on the court, being frustrated a lot, and I knew I was this way, but I couldn’t stop being like this.” Speaking of the match, he added: “I wasn’t really applying a lot of pressure, it was ridiculous at a point, and again I was stubborn, I was stubborn to change it, I didn’t want to change because it has helped me before, it has brought good results.
