Alexander Zverev continues to show that he has regained his best form and has qualified for the round of 16 of the
China Open (Beijing Tournament) after a tough match in which he had to come back from a set down against Argentine Diego Schwartzman.
He lost the first set in the tie-break against a very aggressive Argentine player. However, he reacted very well in the second set and ended up being more solid in the decisive moments of the third set to win 6-7/6-1/6-4.
The serve was key to Zverev's victory, as he finished the match with 7 aces, 77% of first serves and 71% of points won with his first serve. In addition, he was very aggressive in the rest and was able to take five of the ten break balls he had during the duel.
After a very complicated 2022 after his serious injury at Roland Garros, the latest results make it very clear that the best Zverev is back and that in 2024 we must take him into account as a favorite to go far in the Grand Slams. Schwartzman, meanwhile, was fighting, but as is happening throughout the season does not end up being able to finish the matches.
