Among the quarter-finals of the ATP Masters 1000 in Monte Carlo, the match between Alexander Zverev and Janek Sener was the most exciting. The second seed’s encounter with the 20-year-old Italian certainly did not disappoint. In the end, after three hours and seven minutes of fierce fighting, the German won 5:7, 6:3, 7:6 (5).

The game was full of twists and turns. In the first set, Zverev was ahead by 4: 1, but lost 5: 7. In the second, the roles switched. It was Sener who took advantage of the breakout advantage but missed the lead. In the decisive match, Germany came out 5:3, but he turned around and had to score a dramatic tiebreaker victory.

– This win means a lot to me. I’ve been losing such close matches this year, so I’m very happy to win this match,” said the 24-year-old from Hamburg, quoted at atptour.com, who delivered five aces, five breaks and 35 goals on Friday.

In the semi-finals, Zverev will face Stefanos Tsitsipas. This will be the tenth official match between these tennis players. The balance is 6-3 for the Greek, including 2-0 on clay.

Tsitsipas traveled from heaven to hell and back again on Friday. After winning the first set in the second, he was leading 5:2, but then had an inexplicable meltdown and lost this match in the tiebreak. In turn, in the third installment, the Greek lost 0: 4, but he showed a great finish and scored six finals in a row.

The tennis player from Athens finished with four aces, seven breaks and 31 aces. – In the second group I was close. This was the moment I should have ended this duel. Then I felt that what I was doing in court didn’t work. But I tried to stay in the match as long as possible, although in the third set I wasn’t expecting much good, he commented.
