Zverev fails in the quarterfinals: One step towards the title does not come!

Wien, Österreich - Wien-Alexander Zverev's tennis dreams broke at the ATP tournament in Vienna! The German Star, Olympic champion from 2021, failed in the quarterfinals on Lorenzo Musetti from Italy with 6: 2, 6: 7 (5: 7), 4: 6 and thus missed the second title race of the year. Zverev, who went into play as a favorite, showed an impressive performance in the first set, but the pressure could not withstand him for long.

After a dominant start that euphorized fans and experts equally, Zverev seemed to lose the thread in the middle of the game. The 27-year-old, who has already won the prestigious clay court tournament in Rome this year, continues to fight with health challenges that are due to a recent pneumonia.

surprising twists

against Musetti, who now meets the British Jack Draper in the semi -finals, Zverev's progress seemed to be stalled in the third set. He was quickly 0: 3 behind, fought back, but the opponents were relentless. This defeat means that Zverev continues to wait for his second title this year. The fans have to ask themselves: What's going on with your favorite?

The sensation has set itself again, and the hope of returning to the top remains uncertain. The tournament in Vienna stands for many as a stage for spectacular matches, but for Zverev it was another chapter full of disappointments.
