Zverev Reaches Quarterfinals at Roland-Garros

Sixth-Seeded German Defeats Dimitrov in Straight Sets

Zverev Extends Grand Slam Streak, Raises Title Hopes

PARIS, France - Alexander Zverev has advanced to the quarterfinals of the French Open with a convincing straight-sets victory over Grigor Dimitrov. The sixth-seeded German cruised past Dimitrov 6-1, 6-4, 6-3 on Monday, raising hopes that he could end his Grand Slam title drought.

Zverev, a former world number two, has never won a Grand Slam tournament but has been in impressive form this year. He has reached the semifinals of the Australian Open and the quarterfinals of the US Open and is now one step closer to his first major title.

In the quarterfinals, Zverev will face the winner of the match between Rafael Nadal and Felix Auger-Aliassime. Nadal is a 13-time French Open champion, while Auger-Aliassime is a rising star who has reached the quarterfinals of the tournament for the first time.
