Alexander Zverev closed Sunday's evening session in Hard Rock Stadium with a comfortable victory against American Mackenzie McDonald 6-2 6-2.
It's been a good week for Zverev so far in Miami especially considering he had not much sucess here in the past. A few good wins under his belt, he is starting to get his rhytm back which is imporatnt for him. He admitted as much after the match:
"I'm happy to be finding my rhythm a little bit. I'm happy with getting easier wins, as well. Just generally happy to be in the fourth round. I think the tournament is going to get tougher from here, but I'm ready."
The German had success pinning his opponent deep behind the baseline, enabling him to dictate the rallies both on serve and return. He also hit 10 aces in the match and won more than 70 per cent of his service points. It was part of his tactic:
"The most important thing against Mackenzie is to play deep, that's the number one priority. Because he's somebody that tries to go to the net, tries to play aggressive. So try to take that away from him. It worked out well and I'm happy to be through."
