“I was very nervous before coming to play, now I’m delighted to be back and to have won again on this court.said the 26-year-old German, beaming, at the microphone of Alex Corretja. Alex (Molcan) is a great clay court player, he forced me to play well. I have the feeling of finding my best tennis at the best time, because it’s Roland-Garros, it’s the tournament I want to win and I’m incredibly happy about it.”
Indeed, it’s now or never for Zverev, down to 27th place in the world, to find his best tennis. Because after the defeats of Daniil Medvedev in the 1st round and of Jannik Sinner this Thursday in the 2nd round, the German becomes, not the best ranked, but perhaps the favorite of the last quarter of the table.
But after everything he’s just been through, he probably can’t see that far. Especially since awaits, above all, a third round of strong against Frances Tiafoe.
