Well-fought tournament from Tommy Paul. 💪
Kazakhstan’s Alexander Bublik defeated American Tommy Paul in the third round of the US Open. 🎾
The 23rd seed edged past 14th seed Paul 7-6(5), 6-7(4), 6-3, 6-7(5), 6-1 after 1 a.m., advancing to the Round of 16 to face No. 1 Jannik Sinner. 😱
The 28-year-old fired 22 aces and won 83% of his first-serve points. 👀
Bublik has won two of his past three meetings with Sinner, including a victory in Halle earlier this year, setting up what promises to be an exciting matchup. 👏
GISTers, will Bublik take out one of tennis’s best? 🤔
