after the loss of the first set, Alexander Zverev arm wrestling with Frances Tiafoe… Follow the “night session”

Alexander Zverev has no interest in being an early bird. The German faces Frances Tiafoe in a “night session”, Saturday June 3 for his third round of Roland-Garros, two days after having already played at this time. Zverev, now 27th at the ATP, made short work of Alex Molcan on Thursday evening (6-4, 6-2, 6-1) and hopes to put the cover back on the Philippe-Chatrier court.

But his evening opponent is of a completely different caliber. The 12th player in the world, the American Frances Tiafoe is a tough player who can pose problems for “Sascha” Zverev. He knocked out Aslan Karatsev in the previous round in four sets, but is no clay-court specialist. The two players have never met on ochre, but already have seven confrontations. And the scales tilted sharply in favor of Zverev, with six wins to one.
