Frances Tiafoe moves forward in the ATP Masters 1000 Cincinnati 2024 after witnessing his quarterfinal opponent, Hubert Hurkacz, struggle with physical problems due to the significant effort made in recent weeks to recover from his injured knee. The accumulated match load took its toll on the Polish player, causing him pain that led Hubi to be cautious and retire after losing the first set 6-3, aiming to be able to compete in the US Open 2024.
