PARIS: An aggressive Alexander Zverev punched his ticket into the French Open quarterfinals with a 6-1, 6-4, 6-3 win over Bulgarian 28th seed Grigor Dimitrov on Monday to raise hopes that his barren Grand Slam run could finally end.

Playing in the late session on Court Philippe Chatrier for the third match in a row, 22nd seed Zverev was at his dominant best again on a balmy evening as he returned to the quarterfinals for a fifth time in six years.



Up next for the towering twice Roland Garros semi-finalist is Argentine Tomas Martin Etcheverry.

Zverev, whose only defeat by Dimitrov in four previous meetings was nearly a decade ago, wrapped up the first set in double quick time with stunning shot-making that helped him capitalise on all three of his breakpoints.


Having been on the ropes early in the match, the 32-year-old Dimitrov came out fighting in the second set and broke for a 3-2 lead before saving two breakpoints to hold in the next game.

But the wheels soon came off for former world No 3 Dimitrov, who miscued a volley and was flummoxed by a lob into the wind, as German Zverev hit back and increased his grip on the contest when his opponent crashed a shot into the net.

Zverev saved breakpoints to go up 3-0 in the third but a double fault handed Dimitrov a lifeline and he drew level.

Normal service soon resumed, however, and Zverev finished the match in fine style to send out a warning to his rivals.

PARIS: Iga Swiatek menewaskan Karolina Muchova 6-2, 5-7, 6-4 untuk memenangi gelaran Terbuka Perancis ketiganya dan menjadi wanita pertama mempertahankan kejuaraan Roland Garros sejak tahun 2007.

Pemain 22 tahun dari Poland itu adalah wanita ketiga di era Terbuka memenangi keempat-empat aksi separuh akhir Grand Slam, yang menghasilkan kejuaraan di Paris pada edisi 2020 dan 2022 serta di Terbuka Amerika Syarikat tahun lalu.

Muchova, finalis ranking terendah keempat dalam sejarah kejohanan di Paris, bangkit daripada ketinggalan satu set dan 3-0, serta dua kali mendahului Swiatek sebelum tewas dengan kesilapan servis di mata akhir.


"Ia sukar dipercayai, segalanya. Perlawanan sangat sengit, ada turun naik. Saat yang sukar dan berjaya bangkit.


"Jadi saya gembira di akhirnya saya dapat beraksi dengan baik dan menamatkannya. Karolina bermain dengan baik. Ia cabaran yang sukar," kata Swiatek, pemain nombor satu dunia.

Justine Henin adalah wanita terakhir yang berjaya mempertahankan gelaran Roland Garros apabila memenanginya tiga kali berturut-turut dan empat keseluruhan 16 tahun lalu.

Muchova, di ranking ke-43 dunia, beraksi buat kali pertama di final Grand Slam, selepas diberi amaran oleh doktor tahun lalu yang dia mungkin tidak akan bermain tenis lagi.

"Ia begitu hampir tetapi di luar jangkauan, itu yang akan berlaku apabila anda berdepan salah seorang yang terbaik.

"Ia amat mengecewakan, tetapi menjadi finalis Grand Slam sangat menakjubkan," kata Muchova. - AFP

PARIS: Novak Djokovic claimed a record-breaking 23rd men’s singles Grand Slam title when he beat Norway’s Casper Ruud 7-6(1), 6-3, 7-5 in the French Open final on Sunday.

The Serbian is now the only male player to have won each of the four Grand Slams – Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon and US Open – at least three times.




Fourth seed Ruud, playing in his third major final after Roland Garros and the US Open, got off to the better start with an early break.

Djokovic, however, rallied back to win the tiebreak, then cruised through the second set and tightened his grip when it mattered in the third.


The 36-year-old third seed sealed an emphatic win when Ruud sent a forehand wide on the second match point.
