Towards the end, Zverev, who was in seventh place, made it even more exciting: at a score of 5: 3 in the third set, the native of Hamburg already served to win the match, allowing his opponent to break again. A few minutes later, however, Zverev got two match balls, of which he used his first after a playing time of 2:19 hours.

Zverev could also meet Gerasimov in the first round of the Davis Cup in Düsseldorf in early March. However, it is not yet certain whether the German number one will actually start there.
