Tommy Paul has authored a number of memorable wins during this year's French Open. Carlos Alcaraz was not in the mood to partake in any such drama.

Carlos Alcaraz shined on Court Philippe-Chatrier on Tuesday night. The defending champion sailed into the Roland Garros semi-final following a dominant 6-0, 6-1, 6-4 victory over Tommy Paul in an hour and 34 minutes.

No. 2 seed Alcaraz returned to the semifinals at Roland-Garros for the third consecutive year with a 6-0, 6-1, 6-4 victory over No. 12 Paul, who had his right thigh heavily taped and was unable to run, serve or hit groundstrokes at full force.
