Round 16 is a drama

After briefly fading, there was no sign of him in the fourth set. The two opponents did not give each other anything, but again the decision was made at the end of the series. When the score was again 4:4, Zverev showed strong nerves because after being 0:30 behind on his own, he turned the game around and eventually won it.

But Fritz was able to fight this and then made it 5:5. At this point the game turned into a thriller. The German took the lead again with his own serve, but Fritz was able to equalize immediately. This went into the second series break. In this, the American was sure across the board and won 7:3, which means it’s 2:2 in the sets.

In the deciding sentence, Zverev looked sluggish and tired. He may have noticed his knee injury. Fritz quickly made it 4:1. The 27-year-old was no longer able to get on the road and was no longer able to put his opponent under pressure. In the end, Fritz served for the win 6:3 and 3:2 in the sets.
