Reigning champ Alex de Minaur beat Stefanos Tsitsipas interestingly to arrive at the semi-finals of the ATP hardcourt competition in Acapulco, Mexico, on Thursday. Australia’s De Minaur had come up void in 10 earlier gatherings against Tsitsipas, and it seemed to be business as usual when the Greeks hustled through the primary set 6-1. Be that as it may, third-cultivated De Minaur, falling off a next-in-line finish to Australian Open boss Jannik Heathen in Rotterdam, retaliated for a 1-6, 6-3, 6-3 triumph and booked a last-four conflict with England’s Jack Draper.

“Each time I must play him, I become reminded about my record in the matchup,” De Minaur said. “I’m happy I got one on the board.”

Tsitsipas, cultivated fifth, broke De Minaur multiple times in moving through the primary set.

The Australian dominated the competition in a trade of five assistance breaks in the subsequent set and saved the main break point he looked for in the third.

“I might want to say that nobody beats me multiple times in succession; however, hello, Stefanos has had my number for quite a while, so I’m happy I had the option to get one back,” De Minaur said.

Draper, 22, traveled past Serbia’s Miomir Kecmanovic 6-2, 6-2 to seal his spot in the last four.

The other semi-last will pit second-cultivated Holger Rune of Denmark against sixth-cultivated Casper Ruud of Norway.

Rune crushed Germany’s Dominik Koepfer 7-6 (7/2), 7-6 (7/0), to arrive at the semi-finals for the second year straight.

Ruud mobilized from a putdown to beat American Ben Shelton 6-7 (7/9), 6-4, 6-4.
