In the final of the ATP 1000 Men's Tennis Masters in Paris, in the end, Rooney won two sets 6-3/7-5 in a row while losing one set 3-6, defeated Djokovic 2-1, and lifted the Masters championship trophy for the first time in his career.
Although Djokovic is only the No. 6 seed this time, he is also the favorite to win the title, and as the six-time champion of the tournament, Djokovic will attack for the seventh crown, and after defeating Tsitsipas in three sets in the semifinals, Djokovic reached the Masters final for the 56th time in his career.
Nineteen-year-old rising star Rooney has been in excellent form lately, with world No. 18 beating eighth-seeded Aliassime 6-4, 6-2 in the semifinals to reach the Masters final for the first time in his career, having previously beaten world number 1 Alcaraz. With a six-time champion and a 19-year-old star who reached the Masters final for the first time, who can have the last laugh? From the experience and comprehensive strength of the two, Djokovic is obviously stronger, and Rune is a strong opponent of Linke to reach the final, with the possibility of upset in the final.
In the first set, Djokovic won relatively easily, winning 6-3! In the second set, Roone's first serve was saved when he was 40-0 down, then broke Deyo's serve and maintained this break advantage until the end, eventually winning the set 6-3. In the tiebreaker, Rooney won 7-5, and Rooney saved 6 break points in the serve win game!
Rooney burst into tears after the game, and next week he will also finish in the top 10 for the first time in the world rankings.
