<p>Things weren't quite so easy for Alcaraz against a player who had stunned him in the quarter-finals at Toronto last week.</p>

<p>Alcaraz had squandered three match points against Paul before the first of a string of rain delays that forced players off and on the court in a logistics ballet that finally ended after more than three hours.</p>

<p>The Spaniard held on to book a quarter-final meeting with Australian Max Purcell, a 6-4, 6-2 winner over Swiss Stan Wawrinka.</p>

<p>After the final rain pause, Alcaraz, up a break in the third, came out and finished off the final few points, advancing with 40 winners and 61 unforced errors.</p>

<p>"I really wanted to win after what happened against him last week," admitted Alcaraz, who reached his fifth Masters 1000 quarter-final this season.</p>

<p>Alcaraz brought out the best of his big game to tame Paul in a contest first interrupted at 4-3 in the deciding set by the weather. The top seed came back from a break down four times in the first two sets, but he couldn't put it away when he had three opportunities in the 12th game of the second set.</p>

<p>After the 15-minute game, Paul dominated the tiebreaker.</p>

<p>Alcaraz was up a break and serving at 4-3 in the third when rain stopped play for just over an hour.</p>

<p>Then came a stop-start scenario that saw the court dried and players warmed up only for rain to start again.</p>

<p>"All of the starting and stopping was not easy," Alcaraz said. "I handled the waiting well."</p>

<p>There was disappointment however, for third-seeded Daniil Medvedev and fourth-seeded Stefanos Tsitsipas.</p>

<p>Tommy Paul's girlfriend, Paige Lorenze is an Instagram influencer and has been seen recently cheering for her boyfriend, Tommy Paul.&nbsp;Though this is not how her dating has always been, she had quite a hard dating past.</p>

<h2><strong>Whom did Paige Lorenze have dated in the past before Tommy Paul?&nbsp;</strong></h2>

<p>The Instagram influencer has a strange and potentially dangerous dating history. It includes the name of 'Call Me by Your Name' star <strong>Armie Hammer</strong>. He received positive feedback from both audiences and critics. However, when his "cannibalistic" messages surfaced on the internet, it became quite frightening. Paige Lorenze discussed her horrifying experience dating him, even if it was only for a short time.</p>

<p>She also dated <strong>Tyler Cameron</strong>, the runner-up of Bachelorette Season 15, who attracted a lot of attention due to his good looks. Her relationship with him, however, did not last long and ended within a month. She believed that the only reason he dated her was to gain some influence.</p>

<p>She also dated country music singer <strong>Morgan Wallen.</strong> Her relationship with Wallen appeared to be the beginning of something tangible. It did not, however, because the Instagram model accused him of cheating on her.</p>

<p>She also dated <strong>Kasperi Kapanen</strong>, a professional ice hockey player from Finland, for a few months before the couple split up.</p>

<p>The influencer started dating Tommy Paul back in 2022 and the two have been together since, also enjoying each other's company in Australia.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Rafael Nadal was defeated by Tommy Paul on Wednesday at the Rolex Paris Masters, giving him his biggest career victory. The Spaniard`s title run and Carlos Alcaraz`s exit in the third round would have allowed Rafael Nadal to surpass his compatriot at the top of the rankings, but the American`s 3-6, 7-6(4), 6-1 triumph prevented that. Instead, the American denied the World No. 2 a potential return to the top of the ATP Rankings.</p>

<p>"It`s probably my best win. I was obviously pumped for the matchup because it`s always interesting when you play one of the Big Three. I`ve only played him the second time, but the first time I was so nervous. It was weird, this time I wasn`t really nervous. I was pretty relaxed going onto the court and the day before. I think that played a role. I came out playing pretty well. He got the first set, but I feel like I played pretty well from the jump," Paul said as quoted by ATP. After a sluggish start to the Paris evening session, Paul was down a set and a break before breaking Nadal at love to even the match at 2-2. From that point on, the American took control and used his aggressive baseline game to generate three more break chances before winning the set in the tie-break. Paul took an early lead in the decider thanks to a wayward service game from Nadal, and the American pushed home his advantage after surviving a thrilling game to hold for 3-1. After climbing out of a 0/40 hole on the return, Nadal came within millimetres of tying the set, but a potential winner landed just wide and Nadal`s challenge was unsuccessful. The critical hold was made possible by a successful Paul challenge at deuce that erased a Nadal winner on the same sideline.</p>

<p>In the following game, Paul increased his lead by scoring a winner and showcasing his quickness to chase down a drop shot and break for the fourth time. The game was over after two hours, and 32 minutes, following a fifth break. In his first ATP Tour match since the US Open and his first as a father, Nadal displayed glimpses of brilliance but was unable to maintain it, especially down the stretch when he appeared out of sorts. When he hunted down a lob in set two, he made a highlight-reel play by choosing a spinning forehand over a tweener and hooking it past a dumbfounded Paul for a passing-shot winner. After the loss, Nadal may focus on the Nitto ATP Finals, which will happen from November 13-20.</p>

Paris Masters: Tommy Paul pulls off an upset over Rafael Nadal, dents Spaniard's quest to top rankings

<p>Tommy Paul collected the biggest win of his career with a stunning 6-2 4-6 7-6(2) victory over third seed Alexander Zverev under the lights at Indian Wells on Sunday.</p>

<p>After a strong start, the 24-year-old American's good fortune appeared to dry up in the California desert when the hard-hitting German was up a break and serving at 4-2 in the decider.</p>

<p>But Zverev committed four double faults in the game to let Paul back into the match and he did not waste the opportunity, keeping his nerve to force a tiebreak where he played nearly flawless tennis to secure the upset before an adoring crowd.</p>

<p>"I started well, I came to the net a ton and put a lot of pressure on his serve," Paul said in an on-court interview.</p>

<p>"He started serving really well there in the second set and even into the third, but I got kind of lucky there when I got down a break. We'll always take those," he said with a laugh.</p>

<p>Next up for Paul is a third-round clash with Alex de Minaur, who defeated fellow Australian John Millman 7-6(4) 6-3.</p>

<p>BUBLIK BOUNCES MURRAY</p>

<p>Earlier in the day, big-serving Alexander Bublik got revenge against Andy Murray, beating the former world number one 7-6(9) 6-3 to notch his first win over the Scot in three career meetings.</p>

<p>Bublik won the first set tiebreak to seize the momentum and pounded his way to the finish line as Murray was unable to convert any of his six break-point opportunities.</p>

<p>The Kazakhstani sealed the win with a deft drop shot on match point that Murray was unable to reach.</p>

<p>Bublik stood and joined the crowd in applauding the three-time major champion, who claimed his 700th career win on Friday, as he walked off the court.</p>

<p>Murray, who defeated Bublik in straight sets in Rotterdam in February, was left to wonder what might have been.</p>

<p>"Obviously in the tiebreak both of us had some chances, but in the first set I certainly created more opportunities and I didn't take them," Murray told reporters.</p>

<p>Sixth seed Matteo Berrettini managed to serve his way out of trouble to survive a tough test from 18-year-old qualifier Holger Rune and hang on for a 6-3 4-6 6-4 win.</p>

<p>The Italian Australian Open semifinalist was forced to retire with injury during the second set of his last match against Paul in Acapulco last month and admitted to having some rust.</p>

<p>"It's always tricky when you step into the court again so I'm happy to get the win," Berrettini said.</p>

<p>In other second-round action, Americans Taylor Fritz, Steve Johnson, Frances Tiafoe and John Isner all won in straight sets, while fan-favourite Diego Schwartzman of Argentina and Hubert Hurkacz of Poland needed three sets to advance to the third round of the Masters 1000 tournament.</p>
