French Open - 'Look at me when I'm giving you an answer' - Alexander Zverev snaps at reporter over phone

Alexander Zverev was not impressed with a reporter during his post-match press conference at the French Open following his second-round victory. The German third seed faced a match point and recovered in gutsy fashion to come back from two-sets down to beat Sebastian Baez 2-6 4-6 6-1 6-2 7-5 and reach the third round at Roland-Garros. Ad/> It was a brutal encounter for Zverev so early in the tournament, but he showed impressive resilience and resolve to stage the five-set comeback and set up a match against Brandon Nakashima of the USA in the next round.

French Open: Rafael Nadal cruises to 300th Grand Slam win; Carlos Alcaraz survives five-set thriller

Carlos Alcaraz and third seed Alexander Zverev both saved a match point in five-set French Open thrillers, while 13-time winner Rafael Nadal and reigning champion Novak Djokovic eased into the third round on Wednesday. Alcaraz, widely tipped as a title contender, rallied from the brink to defeat compatriot Albert Ramos-Vinolas 6-1, 6-7 (7/9), 5-7, 7-6 (7/2), 6-4 after four hours and 34 minutes. "I feel tired," said Alcaraz. "It was a great battle, a great match and we fought until the last point." The 19-year-old Alcaraz is attempting to become just the eighth teenager to capture a major men's title, and backed as the man to break the stranglehold of Djokovic and Nadal. But he was pushed to the limit by the seasoned Ramos-Vinolas, 15 years his elder and whose best performance at a Grand Slam came when he made the quarter-finals in Paris six years ago.
