Frances Tiafoe (ATP 12) a d\u00e9croch\u00e9 de haute lutte son ticket pour les demi-finales de l’US Open. L’Am\u00e9ricain a sign\u00e9 une folle remont\u00e9e face \u00e0 son compatriote Alex Michelsen (ATP 46), qui n’avait c\u00e9d\u00e9 aucun set depuis le d\u00e9but du tournoi.<\/p>\n
Finaliste au Masters 1000 de Cincinnati, \u00ab\u00a0Big Foe\u00a0\u00bb a renvers\u00e9 Michelsen 5-7 3-6 7-5 6-3 7-6 (10\/6) au bout d’un marathon de 4 heures et demie, \u00e0 la fin duquel il a serr\u00e9 dans ses bras son adversaire, qui a laiss\u00e9 couler de chaudes larmes apr\u00e8s sa d\u00e9faite. \u00ab\u00a0Il aurait pu gagner aujourd’hui, faites du bruit pour Michelsen\u00a0\u00bb, a demand\u00e9 Tiafoe au public du court Arthur Ashe.<\/p>\n
Son adversaire avait, il est vrai, de quoi s’en vouloir. Michelsen a en effet servi pour le gain du match \u00e0 5-4 au troisi\u00e8me set, a men\u00e9 3-0 dans la cinqui\u00e8me manche puis s’est retrouv\u00e9 \u00e0 deux reprises \u00e0 deux points de la victoire \u00e0 5-4 sur le service de Tiafoe dans ce m\u00eame set d\u00e9cisif.<\/p>\n
Tiafoe, qui a en revanche domin\u00e9 les d\u00e9bats dans le tie-break de la derni\u00e8re manche, atteint pour la troisi\u00e8me fois le dernier carr\u00e9 \u00e0 New York apr\u00e8s 2022 et 2024. Il aura du lourd au prochain tour puisqu’il retrouvera le vainqueur du choc entre Carlos Alcaraz et l’homme en forme de l’\u00e9t\u00e9, Ben Shelton.<\/p>\n
