About 3 weeks ago, Alexander Zverev had to congratulate Carlos Alcaraz on the title in the final of Madrid after a final defeat without discussion. In the first quarterfinals of the French Open, the German hit back. After 3:18 hours and a tiebreak that can hardly be surpassed in terms of spectacle, the Olympic champion won the game in 3:18 hours 6:4, 6:4, 4:6, 7:6 (9:7).
Alcaraz fights back, Zverev counters
The eagerly awaited game had not lived up to expectations in the first 90 minutes. Zverev handed a break against the error-prone Alcaraz to win the first two sets.
With his back to the wall, the top Spanish talent then turned up the heat. The 19-year-old, who from then on proved his class again and again, deservedly got the third round. In a high fourth set, Alcaraz saved himself after a break deficit in the tie-break, where he was to lose in a veritable roller coaster ride.
For Zverev, a tiresome series also ended with the semi-finals: For the first time in the twelfth attempt he beat a top 10 player in a Grand Slam tournament and after the success over Alcaraz, who had previously been undefeated 14 times in a row, he can do it with a broad chest fighting for his second final appearance at a major. Opponent in the round of four is Rafael Nadal, who won the 59th duel with Novak Djokovic.
