Terence Atmane\u2019s fairy-tale story has continued.<\/p>\n

The Frenchman, ranked 136 in the world, has produced four spirited main draw performances to reach the first Masters 1000 quarter-final of his career at the Cincinnati Open<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Atmane, who also won two rounds of qualifying, stunned Taylor Fritz<\/a> on Wednesday evening, winning 3-6 7-5 6-3.<\/p>\n

The 23-year-old has also defeated Joao Fonseca<\/a> and Flavio Cobolli on his way to the last eight.<\/p>\n

Atmane made his Grand Slam main draw debut as a qualifier at the Australian Open. The Frenchman faced a tricky first-round opponent: former world number one Daniil Medvedev<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Daniil Medvedev told Terence Atmane he was \u2018unplayable\u2019<\/p>\n

At the 2024 Australian Open, young Terence Atmane was handed a daunting task against Daniil Medvedev after winning three rounds of qualifying.<\/p>\n

Atmane stunned Medvedev in the first set, winning it 7-5. However the Russian fought back, taking the next two sets 6-2 6-4.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the Frenchman was forced to retire at 0-1 in the fourth set.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the ATP Tour<\/a> in May, Atmane revealed the advice Daniil Medvedev offered him at the net after their clash in Australia.<\/p>\n

Atmane said: \u201cHe was telling me, \u2018keep going, because you are unplayable\u2019. <\/p>\n

It was something like that \u2014 I don\u2019t remember exactly \u2014 but it was something like \u2018unplayable.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd then after, he mentioned in the interview, \u2018yeah, that guy played like Top 20 for three sets\u2019. He gave me big confidence. Daniil wasn\u2019t someone I knew from before.\u201d<\/p>\n

Terence Atmane will play Holger Rune in the Cincinnati Open quarter-finals<\/p>\n

Terence Atmane\u2019s task has become no less difficult after defeating Taylor Fritz. The 23-year-old faces Danish star Holger Rune in the Cincinnati Open quarter-finals.<\/p>\n

Rune, who defeated Frances Tiafoe in the round of 16, appears to have kicked into form after working with Andre Agassi at the Washington Open<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The Dane appears to have rediscovered some form after some mid-season struggles. He was recently branded \u2018immature\u2019<\/a> before losing in the Wimbledon<\/a> first round.<\/p>\n

The winner of Rune and Atmane will face Jannik Sinner<\/a> or Felix Auger-Aliassime in the semi-finals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Terence Atmane\u2019s fairy-tale story has continued.
