NEW DELHI: Alexander Zverev, the two-time ATP Finals winner, secured his semi-final spot in Turin on Friday with a commanding 7-6(5) 6-4 victory over Carlos Alcaraz, leaving the Spanish champion's tournament hopes hanging by a thread.
The German, who had already defeated Andrey Rublev and Casper Ruud, needed just one set against Alcaraz to advance. Meanwhile, third-seeded Alcaraz's progression now depends on Rublev defeating Ruud in straight sets later in the day.
