The serve was always the problem for Alexander Zverev in bad phases. Even if he now makes his first double fault of the day, the 26-year-old can rely on his service. 80 percent of his first serve ends up on target. On this basis, Zverev also gets service number four.

Jarry turns duel against Ruud

Nicolás Jarry also benefited from an opponent’s injury during the course of the tournament. He did not have to compete in the round of 16 and went into the quarter-finals rested against the tournament favorite Casper Ruud. Jarry turned up the heat against the Norwegian after losing a set in the first round and still won the game. An absolute exclamation point from the Chilean, who will of course be very confident today.

15:09

Rested instead of in rhythm

After a disappointing few weeks, Alexander Zverev is keen to get back in shape in time for the start of the French Open. But he hasn’t really gotten a lot of playing time and rhythm in Geneva so far. In the round of 16, the American Eubanks had little to oppose him, in yesterday’s quarterfinals opponent Wu gave up in the first set. Now the German should finally be challenged today and complete the acid test for Roland Garros.
