DE MINAUR WINS RALLY AND MATCH WITH A VOLLEY AT THE NET/ PLAYERS SHAKE HANDS STORY: Taylor Fritz, Cameron Norrie and Andrey Rublev all crashed out of the Paris Masters on Thursday (October 30). Fritz has already qualified for the season-ending ATP finals by guaranteeing a place in the top 8 tennis rankings but he was beaten in straight sets by Alexander Bublik 7-6(5) 6-2. Monaco's Valentin Vacherot's incredible run continues as he knocked out another player in the top 50. This time it was Britain's Cameron Norrie who was beaten 7-6(4) 6-4. Vacherot was outside the top 200 players in the world back in September, but he has claimed a number of scalps, including Novak Djokovic, in recent weeks and is into the quarter-finals. Felix Auger-Aliassime's hopes of making the ATP finals are still alive after he came from a set down to beat Daniel Altmaier 3-6 6-3 6-2 while Ben Shelton has guaranteed himself a spot in Turin next month after he made the last eight with a 7-6(6) 6-3 win over Andrey Rublev. Australia's Alex de Minaur will join him there after beating Karen Khachanov. De Minaur has the most wins on the ATP tour's hard courts with 42 and he will face Bublik in the next round.
