Alexander Zverev Turns Tide On Stefanos Tsitsipas To Book Cincinnati Masters Final With Andrey Rublev

Alexander Zverev came from two breaks down in the third set to beat Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (7/4) and reach the Cincinnati Masters final.

Alexander Zverev came from two breaks down in the third set to beat Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (7/4) on Saturday and reach the final of the WTA and ATP Cincinnati Masters. The German, who briefly left the court to vomit in the final set as he stepped up his fightback in front of a full crowd, will take a 4-0 record into Sunday's final with Andrey Rublev. The Russian fourth seed surprised world number two compatriot Daniil Medvedev 2-6, 6-3, 6-3. World number seven Rublev had never won so much as a set in four previous losses to Medvedev, top seed in the prestigious hardcourt tournament that serves as a tuneup for the US Open. Zverev also turned a corner this week, having never won a match in six previous Cincinnati editions. The German said he'd begun to feel his stomach trouble coming on in the second set, and he was seen briefly by a doctor who gave him some tablets in the third.
