In a clash of two rising stars on the ATP Tour, Alex de Minaur of Australia and Tommy Paul of the USA faced off in the quarterfinals of the Internazionali BNL d’Italia in Rome. De Minaur entered the match with a dominant 5-0 head-to-head record against Paul, having defeated him in their previous five meetings. The Australian, currently ranked World No. 8, was looking to continue his impressive form in Rome, where he had reached the fourth round in the past two years.
On the other hand, Tommy Paul, aged 27 and ranked World No. 12, had been enjoying a career-high ranking of No. 9 earlier in the year. The American player had a successful 2025 season so far, with a record of 19-7 and three semifinal appearances. Paul’s journey to the quarterfinals in Rome was marked by his victories over top players, including a stunning triumph over World No. 1 Alcaraz in the previous year. With notable wins in ATP Tour events and a strong showing in junior competitions, Paul was determined to make a mark in Rome and secure his first top 10 win of the year.
As the match unfolded, it was evident that de Minaur’s previous success against Paul gave him a mental edge on the court. The Australian player’s aggressive baseline game and exceptional speed on the court troubled Paul, who struggled to find his rhythm. De Minaur’s ability to dictate play and exploit Paul’s weaknesses allowed him to control the match, ultimately securing a straight-set victory and extending his perfect record against his American opponent to 6-0.
Despite a valiant effort from Paul, who fought hard in each set, de Minaur’s superior court coverage and shot-making skills proved to be the difference in the match. The Australian player’s consistent performance throughout the tournament reflected his status as one of the top contenders on the ATP Tour, while Paul was left to ponder his next steps to overcome his rival in future encounters.
In the end, Alex de Minaur’s dominance over Tommy Paul continued, as he advanced to the semifinals in Rome with a convincing victory. The Australian’s quest for a first ATP Masters 1000 title remained alive, while Paul reflected on the areas where he needed to improve to challenge the top players consistently. As the ATP Tour season progressed, the rivalry between these two talented players promised more exciting matchups and fierce battles on the tennis court.
