At 29 years of age, Misha Zverev is playing one of the best tennis of his life. A few weeks ago in Shanghai, the German defeated (a lethargic) Kyrgios before losing in 3 sets against Novak Djokovic. In Basel, the world no.72 is coming straight from the qualifications to upset local favorite and seed no.1 Stan Wawrinka 6-2 5-7 6-1 in the quarters. Zverev was always pretty much in control of the match to win the last six consecutive games.
The semi vs. Cilic
Misha will play Marin Cilic in the semifinal. The head to head is 2-0 for Marin, but Zverev can definitely pull another upset.
