Joao Fonseca is 19 years old and in his first major quarterfinal.

Teenage tennis player Joao Fonseca is doing very well at the French Open, reaching the quarterfinals for the first time.

Fonseca already surprised everyone by beating Novak Djokovic, and now he beat Casper Ruud to get to the last eight players in Paris.

It took Fonseca almost four hours to win against Ruud with a score of 7-5, 7-6, 5-7, 6-2.

Fonseca won after coming back from being behind, which made his total time on the court very long.

Fonseca said, 'I feel tired.'

He also said, 'This is my first time getting to the second week of a big tournament.'

Fonseca used his strong forehand and serve, but also tried other shots because Ruud made him work hard.

Fonseca said his playing style is a mix of instinct and smart decisions.

He said, 'I just try to be myself, have fun, and play well.'

Fonseca will play against Jakub Menšík in the quarterfinals.

Four-time champion Iga Świątek lost.

This is Świątek's earliest loss at the French Open since 2019.

Świątek lost to Marta Kostyuk in the fourth round, which ended her chance to win the title for the fifth time.

Many top players lost recently, including Djokovic and Coco Gauff.

Now, Aryna Sabalenka is the favorite to win, but Kostyuk is also doing well.

Kostyuk said, 'I'm still in shock' after reaching the quarterfinals.

This is Kostyuk's second time in the quarterfinals of a major tournament.

Kostyuk said she focuses on enjoying the game and making people happy, not just on winning.

Świątek had a tough day and will now prepare for Wimbledon.

Świątek said, 'It wasn't a good day.'

There will be new champions in the men's and women's draws at the French Open.
