The tale of the tape from the 'best seat in the house'
Zverev vs Dzumhur: a battle royale on Chatrier
The German and the Bosnian battled for almost four hours before the No.2 seed prevailed in five.
Concern was etched across the faces of the Zverev support camp as their prodigy toiled. The second seed's Grand Slam record didn't exactly shine; he'd never beaten a Top-50 player at a major in seven previous attempts: US Open 2015 – Kohlschreiber R1 (No.29), Australian Open 2016 – Murray R1 (No.2), French Open 2016 – Thiem R3 (No.15), Wimbledon 2016 – Berdych R3 (No.9), Australian Open 2017 – Nadal R3 (No.9), Roland Garros 2017 – Verdasco R1 (No.37), and Wimbledon 2017 – Raonic R4 (No. 7).
