American Tommy Paul picked up the third singles title of his career over the weekend when he defeated Lorenzo Musetti in straight sets 6-1, 7-6 (8) at Queen’s Club weeks before Wimbledon.
Paul became the first American to win the tournament since Sam Querrey in 2010. Other American champions include John McEnroe, Jimmy Connors and Pete Sampras.

"Going through the hallways here in the locker room and the names on the wall, it’s unbelievable," Paul said. "It was my goal always to put my name next to them."
Paige Lorenze, Paul’s girlfriend, caught the eye of social media as the tennis star celebrated his victory. Fans appeared to be put off by how Lorenze had her hand around her boyfriend’s neck as they posed for photos on the grass court.
