He failed to make the most of his chances. Sinner had break points in every game, which was enough for him to win the match and reach the semi-finals. Zverev, on the other hand, only had seven over four games.Zverev stated that the main difference between the two sets was the way Sinner served on break points.”I had more breaks points than he. I felt great from the baseline. In fact, better than when we were at the rally in Vienna.”He had two chances to beat me and he took both. I had plenty of opportunities, but I didn’t make any.”Sinner served 12 aces. Many came at crucial moments. The Italian won the first set by serving four aces, including two that saved break points. He then came back from 0-40 in the second game with an ace to win the game.Zverev stated that “sometimes when he serves like this, it can be even more difficult, because I only had one second serve, and seven break points. I only made one return. He had a great forehand.”His serve has improved a great deal. Overall, I thought the match was good, and maybe closer than the score indicates.”Zverev has been asked if Sinner’s performance is unplayable.It’s not impossible to play. He had one, he took it,” Zverev replied. “Of course, I think that it’s easy for you to ask these kinds of questions since the score is 6-4 6-3. When you dig deeper, I think that the match could have been much better than 6-4-6-3. Don’t judge everything by the score.”Zverev’s first match was against Ben Shelton. A win over Felix Auger Aliassime would take him to the Bjorn Borg Group semifinals and he may meet Sinner, the defending champion, again in the final.Zverev told reporters: “Listen, my hope is to meet him again this week. It’s that simple.”
