Zverev bids farewell to ATP Finals with victory

Alexander Zverev has won his last group match at the ATP Finals, but still missed out on the semi-finals. The Olympic tennis champion beat the Russian Andrei Rublev 6:4, 6:4 in Turin. However, because Wimbledon winner Carlos Alcaraz from Spain had previously won 6:4, 6:4 against Daniil Mevedev from Russia, who had already qualified for the semi-finals, Zverev was eliminated despite his second victory.

Zverev converted his third match point in the meaningless match after 1:41 hours. After all, he still collected 390,000 dollars (357,630 euros) for his victory. Rublev, on the other hand, remained winless in the entire tournament. It was Zverev's first win against the Russian this year. Rublev had won each of the other three duels in 2023.

This means that the four best tennis players in the world are among themselves in the semi-finals. On Saturday, Italian Jannik Sinner and Medvedev will meet first (2.30 pm/Sky). Afterwards, the world number one Novak Djokovic from Serbia and Alcaraz will play each other in the top duel (21:00/Sky). The final will take place on Sunday (18:00/Sky).

Despite his victory over Rublev, Zverev's run at the ATP Finals ended, as he needed a win against Alcaraz to advance to the semifinals. In the ongoing ATP Finals, Zverev notched his first win against Rublev in their 2023 matches, breaking a three-match losing streak in the tennis series.
