Stefanos Tsitsipas and Sergiy Stakhovsky will play in the quarters in Marseille. They are scheduled to compete on Friday at 7 pm.
Tsitsipas
Seeded no.1, Stefanos is trying to regain the focus that he lost in February soon after the marvelous run he had at the Australian Open. Before Marseille, Stefanos won just 1 match in Sofia and Rotterdam and he is correcting this record in France. The Greek defeated Hubert Hurkacz 6-4 6-2 in the opening match and he is sure he will go up 1 place in the rankings next week when he will be the new world no.11.

Stakhovsky
Currently ranked world no.141, Sergiy failed to qualify for the main draw in Marseille after he lost in 3 sets against Constant Lestienne 7-5 1-6 7-5. However, he was readmitted to the main draw as a lucky loser and he had the chance to play in the 1st round against Lestienne again, but in this case he won in 3 sets 7-6 (3) 1-6 6-3. In the second round, Sergiy beat Gregoire Barrere (another lucky loser) 6-3 6-4.
