"I didn't play my best tennis. But the first match in a Grand Slam is never easy," said Zverev's self-analysis after his opening win on Monday . 6: 7 (8), 7: 6 (5), 6: 3, 6: 2 it was here after four sets and a hacked racket against Marcos Giron.
Zverev's outfit caused more sensation than his tennis game, sleeveless in the style of a basketball jersey, "very cool", Zverev himself thought.
His next opponent: Maxime Cressy, a rather unknown on the tour, currently number 172 in the ATP ranking and with a career high of 152nd place in the statistics. However, the 23-year-old, born in Paris and residing in the USA, convinced in Round 1 with 26 aces, 66 wins and only 26 mistakes without any problems in his 7: 6, 7: 6, 6: 4 victory over Taro Daniel. A "very unique game and a crazy good serve", Daniel attested after the match, "it was almost impossible to take your serve."
Especially on the allegedly so fast courses this year in Melbourne Park. But, says brother and service volleyball expert Mischa Zverev on Eurosport: "The opponent plays a lot of serve and volley, I prepared Sascha well."
For Zverev and Cressy it is the first meeting.
