Benoit Paire - genius and madness rolled into one. While the unpredictable Frenchman was in a playful depression up to the half of the year and only had two match successes, the 32-year-old showed at last week's ATP World Tour 500 event in Hamburg almost manic playing mood for his circumstances. He is now likely to have saved them over to the Swiss mountains.
Two magic stops for the gallery
At least the 6: 3, -7: 6 (2) success over the Slovak Jozef Kovalik as well as two brilliant stop balls in this match give further motivation to the current world number 48. shut down. These showpieces of tennis are definitely worth seeing.
Hopefully Paire will continue to show his best side in the Swiss mountains. The Frenchman, who was ranked six at the ATP World Tour 250 event, will face either the Dutchman Tallon Griekspoor or the Argentine Juan Ignacio Londero in the round of 16.
