Borna Coric recovered from a 0-3 deficit in the first-set tiebreaker and later saved three breakpoints in his first service game of the second set to bag a straight-set win over Marton Fucsovics earlier this week, 7-6 6-1. The top-ranked Croatian bagged consecutive main draw wins in ATP Tour events for the first time since February 2020 and gained a lot of momentum recently in St.Petersburg, where he defeated the likes of Reilly Opelka and Milos Raonic before losing out in two close sets against the red-hot Andrey Rublev in the championship match.

World #24 Borna Coric was in Vienna last week, where he put in a strong fight against the world #1 Novak Djokovic in the second round before going down in two close sets, 6-7 3-6. Borna Coric had gone 1-2 in the second round of Paris Masters, winning the recent such match against Daniil Medvedev in 2018, when he was seeded #11 in the main draw and got a bye in the first round.

Jordan Thompson is through to the second round of Paris Masters on debut appearance after making easy work of Federico Delbonis, who hasn’t got the weapons to trouble in these conditions, 6-2 6-3. The Aussie is still seeking consecutive wins in ATP Tour events since progressing to the quarterfinal of ATP New York (IH) back in February. He recently snapped his four-match losing streak by defeating Cameron Norrie in Nur Sultan but suffered a disappointing three-set defeat at the hands of Emil Ruusuvuori in the second round, despite leading the deciding set by a break.
