Paul Defies Odds

Paul entered the Montreal Masters with a solid 25-19 record, underscored by a solid run into the Round of 16 at Wimbledon and a recent quarterfinal appearance in Atlanta.

The American kicked off his tournament with a straightforward win over Canadian wild card Vasek Pospisil, 6-4, 6-4.

In the next round, Paul delivered the biggest win of his tennis career and one of the tournament’s biggest upsets, beating teenage phenom Carlos Alcaraz in a three-set marathon.

Impressively, Paul came from behind to take the 6-7 (4), 7-6 (7) 6-3 win over the highly fancied Spaniard.

In the R16, Paul served up another upset as he defied the tennis odds to overcome veteran Marin Cilic in straight sets, 6-4, 6-2.

Evans Finds Form

Evans arrived in Montreal with a 15-17 record on the season and riding back-to-back losses. He lost to Maxime Cressy in the R16 at Eastbourne and then crashed out in the first round of his home Grand Slam at Wimbledon, losing to Jason Kubler. Prior to that, however, Evans won his first title of the year in Nottingham.

It’s been a topsy-turvy season for the Briton, but he seems to have found form again in Montreal this week.

Evans opened his tournament against Filip Krajinovic with a three-set win. After surviving that grueling opening-round contest, he delivered the first big upset of the tournament by ousting fifth seed Andrey Rublev in straight sets, 6-4, 6-4.

Emboldened by that result, Evans carried the momentum into the R16 where he took out American Taylor Fritz, 7-6 (5), 1-6, 6-4.

Paul vs Evans Head-to-Head

This is the first-ever meeting between Paul and Evans at an ATP Tour-level event. They met previously at the Challenger and Futures Level in Vancouver, Canada, four years ago. Evans won that match in three sets, 6-0, 6-7 (10), 7-5.
