Stefanos Tsitsipas was dumped out of the
Shanghai Masters by
Ugo Humbert 4-6, 6-3, 5-7, but the umpire got confused himself by the loss for the Greek.
It was Game, Set and Match Stefanos Tsitsipas, but it wasn't with the Frenchman advancing to the last 16 at the ATP 1000 tournament. It marked another top 10 win for the Frenchman who has remarkable stats against these players.
A bizarre moment and one that likely stopped Humbert in his tracks after a superb win.
"I'm so happy. It's a big win against Tsitsipas, a Top 10 player. Last week I beat [Andrey] Rublev so I feel a lot of confidence on court and I'm very proud that I won this match." Humbert said post match.
"I'm just enjoying playing tennis. It's a big passion for me. It's all the work during all the year. Since Davis Cup I've played really great tennis and I'm very happy to play like this." he added.
