Alexander Zverev continues with the most important US tennis tournament. He beat the British Jacob Fearnley in three sets.

Alexander Zverev moved into the third round at the US Open. With 6: 4, 6: 4, 6: 4, the Tennis Olympic champion from Tokyo won against the British Jacob Fearnley. In the third sentence, Zverev already led 5: 1. However, the Hamburger only made his second victory at this year’s New York Grand Slam tournament with the sixth match ball after 2:28 hours.
