Tommy Paul’s words after the knockout with Jannik Sinner

Tommy Paul è surrendered in three sets to Jannik Sinner in their Us Open round of 16 match. After two hard-fought sets, both of which ended in tie-breaks, the American succumbed with a clean 1-6 in the third set, exiting the American major.

"I didn't do very well at the beginning of the match, but I had my chances in the first set,‖ admitted the U.S. in the press conference. "I also had my chances in the second, but he did better in the important points unlike me. That è the story of the match".

"This è the sport we play every week,” added the world number fourteen. “We lose soì many matches in our careers, so this is not a defeat that makes me particularly sad. I am not going to suffer from post-traumatic stress right now".

Sinner è qualified for the quarterfinals where he will once again find Daniil Medvedev. The South Tyrolean will try to take revenge after the Russian won in five sets in the Wimbledon quarterfinals, in the last match played between the two.
