INTERNATIONAL: World number four Alexander Zverev took close to three hours to beat Grigor Dimitrov and book his place in the quarter-finals of the Paris Masters on Thursday, while top seed Novak Djokovic was sent straight through to the quarter-finals with a walkover.

Zverev had two match points in the second set but ended up losing that set in the second tie-break of the match. During the match, Zverev saved nine of the ten break points he faced and the German closed the game out in the third set winning 7-6(4) 6-7(3) 6-3.

Frenchman Gael Monfils withdrew hours before his match against Djokovic due to an adductor strain, sending the Serbian world number one into the quarter-finals. Poland's Hubert Hurkacz also booked his place in the quarter-finals with a 4-6 7-5 6-2 win over German Dominik Koepfer, to improve his chances of qualifying for the November 14-21 ATP Finals in Turin.

Djokovic, Stefanos Tsitsipas, U.S. Open champion Daniil Medvedev, Alexander Zverev, Andrey Rublev and Matteo Berrettini have qualified for the event with two spots yet to be confirmed. The American will play world number one Novak Djokovic on Friday’s quarter-finals. Hurkacz will face Australia's James Duckworth, while Zverev will play the winner of Casper Ruud versus Marcos Giron.
