Atmane, excited after the biggest victory of his career: "This means a lot of money for me"
French, 23 years old and currently ranked #132 in the ATP. No one, absolutely no one, could have thought that Terence Atmane would make it to the semifinals of the 2025 Cincinnati Masters 1000, but this sport is wonderful for things like this. After defeating Holger Rune in the early hours of the morning, with all that entails, Jannik Sinner's next opponent nearly broke down in tears of emotion when asked what this whole week represents to him.
“Right now, it's very difficult to explain how I feel. I am very fortunate to have made it this far. I am in the semifinals of a Masters 1000 and I am going to break into the top100, which means a lot of money for me, something that will be very useful to sustain my career. Now I want to fight in the semifinals; the job is not yet done. I believe I can beat anyone, but anyone can also beat me; that's tennis. Of course, I think I can beat Jannik, otherwise, I wouldn't be here,” said the Frenchman, who is now virtually a top70 worldwide.
