The German thus took his fifth Masters title.
- The US Open starts in a week, so of course I want to keep it and maybe even play better there, says Zverev and continues:
- With my Olympic gold and this fifth Master, I am really looking forward to New York.
Zverev showed no signs of a upset stomach forcing him to a medical timeout in the semi-final victory over Stefanos Tsitsipas.
The match ended with a netball by the Russian Rublev.
- Until the end, I played pretty good tennis.
I did not cheer much online because Andrej and I have been best friends since we were eleven or twelve, says Zverev.
On the women's side, Australian Ashleigh Barty took her fifth title of the season when she defeated Swiss Jil Teichmann in the final of the Cincinnati Masters.
