Kouame left his opponent no chance.
Details: Today, in the 1/64 finals of the French Open, 17-year-old Frenchman Moise Kouame pulled off a real shocker by defeating Croatia's Marin Cilic, the world No. 46.
In Paris, on the "Court Simonne-Mathieu," Kouame dismantled his far more experienced rival in just three sets, winning 7-6, 6-2, 6-1. He became one of the youngest match winners in French Open history and has already produced one of the tournament's biggest upsets, despite being a massive underdog before the match.
In the 1/32 finals, young Moise Kouame will face the winner of the Cameron Norrie vs. Adolfo Daniel Vallejo matchup.
