Tiafoe Eases Into Dallas Quarterfinal With Straight Set Win Over Michelsen

By IANS News February 09, 2024 • 11:38 AM View: 226

American Alex Michelsen: Top seed Frances Tiafoe registered 6-4, 6-3 victory over fellow American Alex Michelsen to reach the Dallas Open quarterfinals.

Tiafoe, who last year cracked the Top 10 in the ATP Rankings, brought out all his tricks in his opening match at the ATP 250 event. He combatted the awkward baseline game Michelsen with an all-court performance.

Late in the second set, he even purposely carved a backhand drop volley with so much backspin, it bounced back to his side of the court.
