How Diallo reached the quarterfinals
Diallo defeated Argentina's Tomas Etcheverry 6-7(11), 6-3, 6-2 on Wednesday to advance to his first quarterfinal of the season. The Montreal player served decisively, recording 14 aces while saving the only break point he faced and converting 86 per cent of his first-service points.
