PARIS: Marin Cilic is 33, nearly eight seasons past his one Grand Slam title at the 2014 US Open — and, until Wednesday, more than four full years removed from his most recent trip to the semifinals of a major tournament.
Rafael Nadal's chronic foot injury issues mean that every tournament, or even every match, he plays in could be his last. It comes after the Spaniard beat his arch-rival, the world No 1 and defending champion Novak Djokovic, in a late-night classic at the French Open on Tuesday.
Rafael Nadal has been warned over the one player left in the French Open draw that can trouble him. The 13-time champion defeated long-time rival Novak Djokovic in four sets on Thursday and now faces Alexander Zverev, but former champion Yevgeny Kafelnikov believes the only man who can worry the Spaniard is in the other half of the draw.
Rafael Nadal's French Open quarter-final victory over Novak Djokovic means the Serb will lose his world No 1 ranking later this month, with the 13-time champion's next opponent Alexander Zverev landing a huge advantage for Wimbledon. Djokovic was the defending champion in Paris but Nadal got revenge over the top seed for beating him in last year's semi-final.
PARIS: French Open night sessions will remain despite the reservations of Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic whose epic quarter-final clash ended at 1:15 Wednesday (Jun 1) morning in front of thousands of shivering fans, many of whom were huddled in blankets to keep out the biting cold.
John McEnroe has warned teenage sensation Carlos Alcaraz of a "problem" he will have to face going forward after his French Open quarter-final defeat to Alexander Zverev. The 19-year-old was in fine form before competing in Paris but crashed out after a four-set defeat to the German.
Carlos Alcaraz is adamant that he can one day win a Grand Slam despite being knocked out of the French Open at the quarter-final stage. Alcaraz was second-best for large parts of his last-eight encounter with Alexander Zverev and though he fought back to take the third set, he eventually went down 4-6 4-6 6-4 6-7 to the German. Ad/> Nonetheless, Alcaraz feels that his performances this year have demonstrated that he has the game to match the best players in the world, and that at 19, his time will come.
Alexander Zverev has the game to beat Rafa Nadal in the French Open semi-finals, believes the German's brother and Eurosport expert Mischa. Zverev downed Carlos Alcaraz in four sets in the quarter-finals in a match that many pundits — including Eurosport's own — believed was the 25-year-old's best-ever in a Grand Slam.
