Easy to face Lucas Pouille et Peter Martinez with two victories in three sets without ever letting go, the German did not tremble any more this Friday against the Briton Jacob Fearnley in the third round. A 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 success. Small event, Zverev was still broken twice. Nothing to disturb the 2nd in the world, very solid in the first week, and a serious contender for final victory. He will face Arthur Fils or Ugo Humbert in eighths.

The German also spoke about his choice to play in South America in February,ATP 250 of Buenos Aires Then the ATP 500 in Rio. “I really don’t like the playing conditions in Rotterdam, I never felt good there. Also, last year I decided to take a month off during this part of the season and I felt like I was losing all my physical and Tennis fitness, so the ideal option was clear. I’m really looking forward to seeing what these events are like and enjoying the fans.”
