Tommy Paul reached the Paris Masters quarterfinals Thursday with a 7-6, 6-4 victory over Quentin Halys.

The 12th-seeded American completed the match in one hour, 35 minutes, according to the tournament’s official result.

Paul had beaten Holger Rune and Daniel Merida in his opening two matches. He defeated Merida 6-1, 6-1 before facing Halys, according to the tournament’s match report.

The quarterfinal appearance equals Paul’s best Paris result, which he first reached in 2022. His win ended Halys’ run after the Frenchman had beaten Frances Tiafoe in the previous round.
