PARIS: Stefanos Tsitsipas advanced to the French Open quarter-finals on Sunday for the second year running with a 6-3, 6-2, 7-5 victory over Spain’s Pablo Carreno Busta.
The Greek fifth seed will take on two-time Grand Slam runner-up Daniil Medvedev or Chile’s Cristian Garin for a spot in the last four.
Tsitsipas, 22, has reached the semi-finals at the past two majors, and was beaten in a thrilling five-setter by Novak Djokovic at last year’s Roland Garros.
He has won a tour-leading 37 matches this season, including 20 on clay.
