SHANGHAI: Alex de Minaur of Australia recorded his 50th tour-level victory of the season on Wednesday at the Shanghai Masters, moving past Nuno Borges 7-5, 6-2 to reach his seventh ATP Masters 1000 quarterfinal.
De Minaur is just the third man to hit the 50-win mark in 2025, joining Carlos Alcaraz (67) and Taylor Fritz (50), with the Australian earning a tour-leading 37 victories on hard courts, according to ATP stats.
"For me it just shows consistency, and that is what I am most proud of, " De Minaur said on earning 50 tour-level wins. "Showing up every single week, and it is an amazing number. I am hoping for many more to finish off the year and not stay at 50."
