Tiafoe emerges as the winner of a match by scoring nine points less than his rival

Tennis is an unpredictable, cruel, and sometimes inexplicable sport. This is what the Japanese player Watanuki must be thinking, eliminated from the ATP Masters 1000 Toronto 2025 by Frances Tiafoe, who completed an astonishing exercise in survival. The American hit 19 winners and committed 32 unforced errors, compared to his opponent's 45 winners and 16 errors. It's inconceivable that Tiafoe won, especially considering Watanuki actually won more points in the match, 99 to 90.

Winners:
Tiafoe - 19
Watanuki - 45

Unforced errors:
Tiafoe - 32
Watanuki - 16

Points won:
Tiafoe - 90
Watanuki - 99

Guess who won the match?
