ATP Paris Masters 1000

  • Marin Cilic grabbed a spot in London with his win over David Goffin, finally snapping his losing streak against the Belgian – his first win over the eighth seed.
  • Jack Sock is underlining his spot as the American No. 1 as he dispatched Richard Gasquet [12] on home turf. He will be in an all-American quarter-final with John Isner, guaranteeing a semi-finalist from the USA.
  • Top seed and World No. 1 Novak Djokovic suffered a scare after dropping the first set to Grigor Dimitrov, and despite a tweak to his knee, came through in comfortable form in the next two sets to turn the match around.
  • The race is still on as Andy Murray swept past home hope Lucas Pouille so the World No. 1 Merry-go-Round continues into the quarter-finals – he faces Tomas Berdych who needs to reach the finals to guarantee his spot
  • Jo-Wilfried Tsonga kept his Barclays World Tour Finals hopes alive in dramatic fashion coming back from a bagel set to knock out fifth seed Kei Nishikori in a thriller – but he still needs a title win.
