Alexander Zverev on Carlos Alcaraz favouritism: 'It is very interesting ... (Tennis365)

Alexander Zverev has bemoaned the fact that Carlos Alcaraz has played three of his 2022 French Open matches on Court Philippe-Chatrier.

“I get that he is the exciting new mega talent in tennis. “But it is very interesting to see that Alcaraz gets what he wants. That is totally fine for me. And that is proper. “We [Alcaraz and myself] have Novak and Rafael on our side of the tournament. It’s more complicated to rest.

ALEXANDER ZVEREV will play Carlos Alcaraz in the quarter-final of the French Open on Tuesday.

But whilst German star Zverev is prepared to accept both players getting the top billing, he's taken issue with Alcaraz being afforded the same treatment: “We [Carlos Alcaraz and me] have Novak and Rafael on our side of the tournament. I am still the No. 3 in the world, but this is nothing about me," he continued. Three of his four wins have come on the showpiece Phillipe Chatrier court, whole Zverev, 25, has graced there just once.

French Open quarter-finals: Zverev v Alcaraz, Gauff and Trevisan ... (The Guardian)

Rolling report: Join our team for all the latest as the quarter-finals get under way at Roland Garros.

Then comes an ace, but then a double fault, a first, and it’s back to deuce. But then a service return has Alcaraz netting the ball off his toes. Then Alcaraz again misses as he tries to get around a forehand, and that’s a third set point. Then Alcaraz misses from the baseline with a backhand. Then a serve and volley at the net takes it to 30-30. Alcaraz has a glimpse of a comeback, and the crowd on his side, as he gets to 0-30 after a Zverev error. Then Alcaraz nets with a backhand for 2-0 to Zverev. He somehow digs out a winner to the back of the court for 1-2. This has been a problem in the Zverev career..but he follows up with a bomb that levels the set. Then Alcaraz gets a tad lucky on the next point when Zverev slows up. An ace takes Zverev to 30-0, a sixth, then comes a sixth double. Then comes an angled winner for 4-3 to the Spaniard. Then Zverev levels with a winner. He missed the first after a drop shot sets Zverev scrabbling.

Alexander Zverev Takes Out Alcaraz For Roland Garros SF Spot ... (ATP Tour)

Alexander Zverev powered to a second-straight semi-final at Roland Garros on Tuesday, staving off a Carlos Alcaraz fightback to earn an impressive victory ...

Despite failing to serve out for victory as Alcaraz again pegged the German back, Zverev came good in the tie-break to improve his ATP Head2Head lead over the Spaniard to 3-1. A break in the seventh game of the second set was enough to clinch it for Zverev, who continued to move forward whenever possible to pressure Alcaraz. As he has so frequently this season, however, the Spaniard found a way to remain competitive despite not finding his peak game. He converted his third break point of the fifth game before going on to secure the first set as Alcaraz struggled to find his rhythm. He was still forced to fend off a break point to hold serve in the second game, an early reminder of the Alcaraz threat, but the German looked the more confident and the pressure told. In contrast to that performance, the 19-time tour-level titlist maintained a high level throughout against Alcaraz, putting together his most convincing display of the tournament as he chases a maiden Grand Slam crown. Alcaraz channelled the support of an enraptured crowd to raise his game and claim the third set, but Zverev’s big serve proved crucial in blunting the Spaniard’s comeback.

Zverev missed a backhand of his own on his first match point, but he won the next two points to close out the match, finishing off the victory with a bold backhand return winner down the line that Alcaraz, one of the quickest men in tennis, could not come close to reaching. “At the end of the day, I knew I had to play my absolutely best tennis today from the start, and I’m happy I did that,” Zverev said. Alcaraz had one set point at 6-5 in the tiebreaker and failed to convert it when he made an unforced error with his backhand into the top of the net.

Alcaraz, in contrast, was not at his highest level, accumulating 32 unforced errors over the first two sets alone, 17 more than Zverev in that span.

PARIS — (AP) — A lot of folks were predicting that 19-year-old rising star Carlos Alcaraz would leave this French Open as the champion. Instead, it's Alexander Zverev who still has a shot at his first Grand Slam title. “I hope I can win it before he starts ... beating us all.” Theirs was the first showdown between two men with at least 20 Grand Slam titles (Nadal has 21; Djokovic 20), the first between two men with at least 1,000 match wins (Nadal has 1,055; Djokovic 1,005), the first between two men with at least 300 match wins at major tournaments (Djokovic has 327; Nadal 302).

He struck two nervous unforced errors and Alcaraz pounced, closing off the return game with uncompromising aggression and a crosscourt backhand winner. Experience in these big moments, of which Zverev possesses a huge amount despite being unable to take the final step, counts for much. In the second set Alcaraz produced plenty of his usual spectacular moments but he simply could not find his level. With an exquisite return game, he extended the match after ending a long exchange with a brilliant forehand passing shot, then landing another delicate drop shot. He soaked up the Spaniard’s inside-out forehand with his own excellent backhand, which remarkably did not concede a single unforced error for two and a half sets. But a player rises to No 3 in the rankings for a reason.

Alexander Zverev Vanquishes 19-Year-Old Sensation Carlos ... (Forbes)

Alexander Zverev remains alive for his first Grand Slam title, while Carlos Alcaraz will have to wait for his next opportunity.

Alcaraz had won 14 straight matches, including capturing the title in Madrid where he became the first man to defeat Nadal and Djokovic in the same clay court event. He was seeking to become the youngest Roland Garros semifinalist since Nadal in 2005. In the tiebreak, Zverev earned his first match point at 7-6, but then hit a backhand into the net. I knew that I had to absolutely play my best tennis from the first point on and I did that. The loss snapped a 14-match winning streak for Alcaraz, who entered Paris as the second favorite to win the title behind world No. 1 Novak Djokovic. “It was obviously a fantastic match,” Zverev said.

Alexander Zverev led by two sets to one and had a chance to clinch his quarter-final clash at Roland Garros with Carlos Alcaraz in the fourth-set tie-break.

“Yes, I have not beaten them in majors, but I feel like I was very close. They have been top of the game for the past 15, 20 years, and there is a big reason for that. I won big events like the Olympics, as well.” “At the end of the day, I'm not 20 or 21 years old anymore,” said Zverev. “I'm 25. “I think Carlos is one of the best players in the world right now.
