On top of that, the 23-year-old reached his first Grand Slam final, where he will face second-seeded Dominic Thiem, who beat third-seeded last year's finalist Daniil Medvedev 6-2.7-6 (9-7), 7-6 (7-5). .
- I hung on mentally.
Many players had let go, Zverev told the major news agencies.
- There are no easy matches anymore.
Sometimes you have to dig deep.
Today I dug deep, very deep, says Zverev.
Dominic Thiem had a set ball against him in both the second and third sets but managed Daniil Medvedev and reached his fourth Grand Slam final where he is still waiting for the first win.
- I love these big matches - even more when it's a crowded stadium.
But it is also cool to be able to do it in front of many, many TV viewers, says Thiem.
