In the round of 16 of the 2022 Paris Masters at Bercy, world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz will face Grigor Dimitrov. Alcaraz dominated his first-round match against Yoshihito Nishioka, winning in straight sets 6-4, 6-4. The 19-year-old was a force on the serve, winning 85% of his first serve points and 73% of his second serve points, thanks to nine aces. Despite losing his serve once during the match, he broke Nishioka’s delivery three times to advance to the next round.
In the tournament, Dimitrov has played two completely different matches against two completely different game styles. He held his own against the tall Dutchman Botic van de Zandschulp and won in two tiebreakers. He was more dominant and free-flowing in his second-round match against Fabio Fognini. The Bulgarian broke the flamboyant Italian’s serve five times while only losing his own once to win the match 6-0, 7-5 and advance to the next round.
Carlos Alcaraz and Grigor Dimitrov are scheduled to take on one another in the third round of the 2022 Paris Masters on Thursday, November 3. The tournament is scheduled to be held from October 31 to November 6, 2022.
