Greece's Stefanos Tsitsipas continued his streak of fine form at the Ultimate Tennis Showdown - securing his semi-final place with two weeks of round-robin competition to go.

The world number six bounced back from 0-2 down against Matteo Berrettini to win the encounter in sudden death.

That means he has a record at the Mouratoglou Academy of six wins to just one defeat - which came against Dominic Thiem.
