Theyd played 3 times already this season 8 sets to 0 and 6 of those 6-4. So thats a good step up from Jake, no cigar as CD says, but a much better performance
And Zverev played some more front foot tennis than he often does
SO close - but no cigar
... unfortunately yes front foot to the end on his 4th MP with that final low volley dispatched nonchantly, my shouts of "miss!" evidently having no effect.

This was a great follow-up year after his breakthrough season. He has competed well on the tour; lots to improve on, but he belongs here firmly. Excited to see what happens next.
Contenders for the doubles race falling like flies in Basle and Vienna - Bolelli and Vavassori; ERV and Nys; Harrison and King. The Germans, Krawietz and Putz are effectively qualified without playing this week; Doumbia and Reboul could get in contention if they can have a good week in Vienna. Why they chose Vienna though, Basle same points and a weaker field for sure.
