toasting his first ATP Masters 1000 title after he secured victory in a curious men\u2019s final against Frances Tiafoe in Cincinnati.<\/p>\n<p>Frenchman Fils looked set to run away with the final as he got off to a flying start against his American opponent, winning the first set 6-3.<\/p>\n<p>He then appeared to lose his way with a strange display in a second set that was won 6-1 by Tiafoe, with all the momentum swinging back to Fils as he won the decider 6-0.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWow, that feels good. That feels good,\u201d Fils said. \u201cIt\u2019s a lot of training, a lot of things, a lot of sacrifice. Injury. To be able to win one title like this means a lot to me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was a bit nervous during the final. The second set was so quick and I was thinking this is going to be tough, but this is a big win for me and my team.<\/p>\n<h2>More Tennis News<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/us-open\/us-open-withdrawal-list-16-stars-jannik-sinner-joined-holger-rune-elena-rybakina-struggles-to-walk\">All 16 withdrawals from US Open as former world No 4 joins Jannik Sinner, doubts over Elena Rybakina<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/alex-eala-usopen-prediction-aryna-sabalenka-written-off\">Former US Open finalist makes big Alex Eala prediction as she prepares to shine in New York<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI needed to make a little energy at the start of the second set.

It\u2019s not the end goal, but I am very happy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSometimes you have to see the positives from negative things. You have to think that if you keep working, it will come good and it did today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fils will now head into the US Open as one of the big contenders to win his first Grand Slam title, with this win firing him up to No 11 in the ATP Rankings.<\/p>\n<p>He will have a great chance to leap into the top 10 of the rankings if he continues his impressive form in New York.<\/p>\n<p>This was an emotional win for Fils after he overcame a stress fracture in his back that hampered his progress in the opening half of 2026, with his impressive comeback capped by the biggest title of his career.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Want more from Tennis365?
