Zverev secured top spot in the group with a 7-6 (5), 6-4 win that left Alcaraz waiting to find out his fate

Alcaraz says of facing Zverev:

My chances of qualifying are still there, so we’re going to go all out. But [Zverev] is one of the toughest players in the world for sure.

I think I return pretty well but he has a really big serve and plays unbelievable from the baseline, which makes him a really tough opponent to face.

It means I’m old! But I still don’t feel old. I hope I have another solid 10 years ahead of me, but I think it’s a young group of guys. There has been kind of a shift in tennis this year and I think it’s a good thing. They’re exciting new players and everybody loves watching them.

I’m expecting a tough match [against Alcaraz], we’ve played some very tough battles in grand slams this year. I’m looking forward to it and hopefully it will be fun to watch.
