PARIS – Of course, Tommy Paul is happy to be back and win his first round at the French Open, but perhaps not as excited as he discusses resuming his truck home in Florida when he accidentally misses some payments.
The twelfth seed Paul kept the truck in Roland-Garros’ clay player score, by eliminating Denmark’s 6-7 (5), 6-2, 6-3, 6-1, alternating with light rain and strong winds in the sun during the game of Simonne-Mathieu.
After that, the 2023 Australian Open player explained that his vehicle adventures when he entered the semifinals at the Italian Open earlier this month were due to a change in the bank and forgot the automatic payment to his Ford F-150.
Paul said, “I miss it, I think it’s three-point payout. They’re here. “Now, I’m watching all these ‘buyback’ shows, they come in and slam the truck at 1 a.m. It was definitely a fun experience. It was even more crazy when it happened in Europe. But we did get it back. ”
He found that when his coach returned to Florida’s coach asked Paul to check his security camera footage, the truck had disappeared to see if any packages had been delivered to the house and needed to be picked up.
To Paul’s surprise, he said Sunday: “No parcels – no trucks.”
As he looked back and browsed the video, the 28-year-old American grew up in New Jersey and saw what was going on.
“I thought, ‘What the hell is going on? There’s a tow truck coming to deliver my car!’ I thought it was stolen at first,” he said.
When he figured it out, Paul went to social media and posted black and white footage of his property that was dragged out of the driveway and added a soundtrack to Celine Dion’s “My Heart Keeps Going.”
