That happened quickly: In the 3rd round, Alexander Zverev only needed three sets to win. His opponent hardly has a chance.
Alexander Zverev has reached the round of 16 of the Australian Open. The world number two only needed three sets to beat Briton Jacob Fearnley. Zverev prevailed 6:3, 6:4 and 6:4 and reached the next round. His next opponent is definitely French. But it is still unclear whether Zverev will meet Ugo Humbert or Arthur Fils. The direct duel takes place on Friday morning German time.
In any case, Zverev is still in top form. So far, the man from Hamburg has not lost a single set and has won all three matches confidently.
Not all world-class players can say that. Last year’s finalist Daniil Medvedev was eliminated in the second round. The world number five lost to qualifier Learner Tien from the USA after 4:48 hours of play 3:6, 6:7 (4:7), 7:6 (10:8), 6:1, 6:7 (7:10 ).
