The match between Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev had another advantage in addition to qualifying for the semi-finals of the ATP Finals: second place in the ATP rankings was at stake and in the end it was the German who won victory after winning by 7-6 and 6. -4.
The ATP Finals crossed paths with two old acquaintances: Alcaraz and Zverev. The Spaniard and the Murcian had already faced each other ten times, with five victories each, although in Turin the German tipped the scales in his favor. It was the third confrontation of last year with a partial 2-1 for Alcaraz after his victory in the quarter-finals of the Masters 1000 in Indian Wells and in the final of Roland Garros.
Alcaraz did not start well in a match vital to maintaining his chances of advancing to the semi-finals of the ATP Finals. The Murcian was very close to being broken twice by Zverev at the start of the match, but he managed to win and maintain his serve. However, Zverev won the points “easily” on his serve.
