Frances Tiafoe claimed his first grass court title on Sunday, saving a match point to defeat Germany's Jan-Lennard Struff in the Stuttgart final.

The American came through 4-6, 7-6 , 7-6 and will move into the world top 10 for the first time on Monday, joining eighth-ranked compatriot Taylor Fritz among the elite.

Tiafoe withstood 28 aces from Struff who was bidding to become the first home champion since Michael Stich in 1991. He made a successful diving lunge on his third match point, just getting the ball over the net for victory after two hours, 12 minutes on court. Tiafoe will have little time for celebration with a flight to London to catch in time for next week's start at the Queen's Club Wimbledon tune-up tournament.
