Pedro Martínez Portero was seeking good victories at the ATP Basel since he lifted the trophy at the Valencia Challenger. He managed to defeat Jiri Lehecka in his debut, but couldn't overcome Arthur Fils in the Swiss tournament's round of 16. The Valencian fell 7-5 6-3 to a more solid Fils, who avoided a consecutive loss against a Spaniard after the one in Shanghai against Roberto Carballés. Thus, the Frenchman will face Stefanos Tsitsipas in the quarterfinals.

The match lasted nearly 3 hours and 20 minutes, a complete roller coaster where both players had the chance to clinch the victory. However, the American stepped up in the final tie-break to advance to the quarterfinals, where she will face Spanish player Jessica Bouzas.

The crowd at the Basel ATP wanted to see their player, Stan Wawrinka, string together victories at home after defeating Adrian Mannarino in his debut. However, Ben Shelton dashed all hopes by winning 7-6(2) 7-5 to secure his ninth quarterfinal appearance this year. The American didn't have it easy either, as Wawrinka pushed himself to provide a good and entertaining match. It wasn't enough this time, but the Swiss can conclude his journey in Basel with his head held high. On the other hand, Shelton underwent a tough test and will now face Andrey Rublev in the quarterfinals.

The American interpreted in his podcast the Serbian's decision not to play in Paris, with the ATP Finals hanging by a thread. "From now on, he will choose his venues."
The main favorite for the title in the WTA Tokyo started her participation with a solid victory against the local player, Moyuka Uchijima. We are talking about Quinwen Zheng, a player who continues to show consistency on the circuit by reaching the quarterfinals for the fourth consecutive time (7-5 6-0). The Chinese player aims for a title before competing in the WTA Finals, a goal that seems very achievable if she keeps playing her best tennis as she has been doing so far, especially in this Asian tour. Now, in the next round, she will face the runner-up of the 2021 US Open, Leylah Fernández.

While the American triumphed 6-4 7-6(4), the Australian had to come from behind to stay alive in the Austrian tournament (2-6 6-2 6-2).

Lately, the arbitral decisions in tennis matches are increasing, and the dissatisfaction with their poor accuracy is wearing out players and spectators. This time, Tomás Etcheverry was unfairly disadvantaged in his match against Ben Shelton at the Basel ATP. An American's return in the first set appeared to bounce out just before hitting the Argentine's leg. However, the chair umpire ruled that the ball first rebounded off Etcheverry's body, ultimately awarding the point to Shelton. Despite the Argentine's protests, the referee's decision stood, proving crucial in the score as what could have been a 30-all game turned into a 15-40 with a break point for the American (who eventually won the game).
Big mistake from the umpire that will likely cost this set for Etcheverry 😳

The umpire interpreted that Shelton's return hit Etcheverry's leg before bouncing but as you can see from the replay, it's clear that it bounced (outside of the court - OUT) first and only then touched… pic.twitter.com/IxFIw4Fuh8
