Alexander Zverev defeated a resilient Jannik Sinner to advance to the US Open quarterfinals on a blazing warm Sunday night in New York.
Zverev won with a score of 6-4 3-6 6-2 4-6 6-3 on Arthur Ashe Stadium and secured a quarterfinal matchup with top seed Carlos Alcaraz by maintaining composure in the decisive set. Sinner appeared to be experiencing cramps in both his right and left legs during the decisive fourth game of the second set, but he remained tough enough to maintain serve by saving five break points.
Zverev shared his remarks when asked about his upcoming encounter with Carlos Alcaraz: “I’m here to play. That’s what I love doing. I don’t know how it will end up but I’ll give it my absolute best, like I always do, I will fight until the last moment. Of course, I have to recover after this physical match, but I’ll be ready.”
He further added: “I guess I can say I’m back, right? This is what I live for, this is what I absolutely love to do. I wish I could have played a little bit shorter, that’s for sure, but last year when I wasn’t able to play, these were exactly the moments I missed. There’s nothing better.”
