Second seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga continued his quest for a third ATP World Tour title of the season with a 6-0, 6-4 quarter-final victory over #NextGenATP Russian Karen Khachanov in 64 minutes at the Open Parc Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Lyon. The Frenchman lost just six points on serve to improve to a 20-5 match record in 2017.
Tsonga, a winner of two indoor trophies at Rotterdam and Marseille this year, will now face Nikoloz Basilashvili, who is one victory away from reaching his third ATP World Tour final after the Georgian knocked out Argentinean qualifier Nicolas Kicker 6-3, 6-1 in 65 minutes. Basilashvili, with a 16-10 match record on the season, finished runner-up to Ryan Harrison in the Memphis final in February.
Top seed Milos Raonic and third seed Tomas Berdych also compete at the ATP World Tour 250 tournament later today.
