ATP – Rolex Masters > Imperial against Rune, Zverev awaits Humbert or Khachanov in the final

Alexander Zverev is on mission for this Masters 1000 at ‐Bercy.

Always so comfortable in indoor conditions, even more so on this very fast surface of the Accor Arena, the German almost never trembled this Saturday against the winner of the 2022 edition, Holger Rune: 6–3, 7–6(4), in 1h45 of play.

Almost. Because the German broke down a little when serving for the match, at 5–4 in the second set. It was ultimately only a postponement after a perfectly controlled decisive game.

Still as impressive on his throw in play (83% of points won behind his first ball) and particularly opportunistic (two break points converted out of three), the 3e world player qualified for 36e final of his career, the second in Paris after 2020, and already the 12the and Masters 1000.

Whatever the result of the second semi‐final between Ugo Humbert and Karen Khachanov, Sascha will start as favorite this Sunday in the final. And you're going to have to be very strong to prevent him from lifting a 23e trophy.
