Alexander Zverev advanced to the third round of the US Open in New York after another grueling five-set night match, defeating French opponent Quentin Halys. The top-seeded German tennis player needed approximately four and a half hours to secure victory, and the match ended deep after 2 a.m. local time. Spiegel.de ↗
Zverev did not achieve an easy victory at the tournament again. For the second time, he had to play a match to the full distance of five sets and, according to several reports, demonstrated predominantly weak performance. Halys, who was labeled an unseeded underdog and ranks as the 52nd player in the world rankings, managed to keep pace with the favorite and significantly complicated his path to the next round. kultura.pravda.sk ↗
The German player won the first set 6:4, lost the second 4:6, and took the third in a tiebreak. The match was accompanied by unusual circumstances, with attention also focused on Zverev's outfit and completely wet shoes. The player himself admitted dissatisfaction with his performance after the match.
Although Zverev remains in the tournament, his performances so far do not indicate the clear form of the main favorite. In the third round, he will need a more stable performance, as another similarly long match could be a significant physical strain under the demanding conditions of the US Open. Die Zeit ↗
