The 22nd-seeded Zverev finished out his 3-6, 7-6 (3), 6-1, 7-6 (5) victory after more than 3 1/2 hours in Court Philippe Chatrier to reach the fourth round
Frances Tiafoe kept coming oh so close to extending his French Open match against Alexander Zverev: 12 times on Saturday night, the American was two points from forcing things to a fifth set.Instead, the 22nd-seeded Zverev finished out his 3-6, 7-6 , 6-1, 7-6 victory after more than 3 1/2 hours in Court Philippe Chatrier to reach the fourth round. With Tiafoe’s exit, none of the 16 men from the United States who were in the bracket at the start of the tournament are still in the field.No.
After that came this benchmark: 10 Americans were ranked in the ATP’s Top 50, something that last happened in June 1995. In that game, and the next, and later on, too, including at 5-all in the tiebreaker, he would come within two points of owning that set. “He’s one of my best friends on tour,” said Zverev, a German who twice has reached the semi-finals on the red clay of Paris, “but on the court, I’m trying to win.”
