Zverev extends winning streak against Nadal, reaches Paris Masters final

Even though Rafael Nadal was considered the favourite heading into this one Alexander Zverev has produced better performance this past week in Paris. He produced yet another one against Nadal today beating him 6-4 7-5 in just over 95 minutes of play. It was a very interesting match that saw Nadal repeat some of the early struggles he had in the previous matches. Zverev used those struggles to break the Spaniard and take a 3-1 lead. From there he mainly focused on his own service games winning them without any particular issues. He served well and once he got his 1st serve in it was hard for Nadal to counter. The Spaniard won only 3 of those points and that was not good enough against Zverev so the German won the opening set 6-4.
