He also reached the third round at a Grand Slam for the first time at the French Open,[20] where he upset Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in the second round. After recording his first ever grass-court win in Eastbourne and making his main-draw debut in Wimbledon,[21] he reached his third quarterfinal of the year in Båstad, but had to withdraw from his match against Alejandro Tabilo.
In Montreal, Tirante reached the fourth round of a Masters 1000 event for the first time in his career, upsetting world no. 8 Taylor Fritz on the way there for his second top 10 win of the season and third top 10 win overall.[22] He also upset former champion Alexei Popyrin, but eventually lost to 19th seed Learner Tien in the fourth round.
