Open de Lyon : Fils avance tandis qu’Ymer est disqualifié.

Arthur Fils advanced when Mikael Ymer was defaulted at the Lyon Open and will face Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime or Spain’s Pablo Llamas Ruiz next

Arthur Fils advances to quarter-finals of Lyon Open after Ymer’s disqualification

French wildcard Arthur Fils has advanced to the quarter-finals of the Lyon Open after Swede Mikael Ymer was disqualified from their second-round match. Fils, ranked No. 112, was leading 6-5 when Ymer, ranked No. 53, was defaulted for banging his racket into the umpire’s chair. Ymer’s outburst came after a controversial line call earlier in the 11th game of the first set.

Fils will now face the winner of the match between Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime, the top seed, and Spanish qualifier Pablo Llamas Ruiz in the next round. The 18-year-old Frenchman had previously won against Chinese qualifier Zhizhen Zhang (6-3, 6-2) in the previous round of the Lyon tournament.

The disqualification of Ymer was a dramatic ending to a fascinating contest, and it remains to be seen how Fils will fare in the quarter-finals. However, his impressive performance so far in the tournament has certainly caught the attention of tennis fans and experts alike.

A bright future for Arthur Fils?

Arthur Fils may be a wildcard entry in the Lyon Open, but his recent performances suggest that he has a bright future ahead of him in the world of tennis. The 18-year-old Frenchman has shown impressive skill and composure on the court, and his victory over Ymer is just the latest example of his potential.

Of course, Fils still has a long way to go before he can establish himself as a top player in the sport. However, his progress in the Lyon Open is certainly a promising sign, and it will be interesting to see how he develops in the coming years.

In the meantime, tennis fans will be eagerly anticipating Fils’ next match in the quarter-finals of the Lyon Open. Will he be able to continue his impressive run and make it to the semi-finals? Only time will tell.
