DJOKOVIC TOPS ZVEREV TO REACH SEMIS, MARQUEE MATCHUP AGAINST SINNER
Djokovic tops Zverev, 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-4, to post his 101st win at Roland Garros, which was also the site of his 2024 Paris Olympics gold medal run.
Furthermore, the 38-year-old Serbian world No.6 needed all of three hours and 17 minutes to outlast his German third-seeded opponent.
Moreover, Djokovic will move on to face world No.1 Italian Jannik Sinner in the semifinals to resume his bid for a record 25th Grand Slam title.
“Obviously there was a lot of tension (and) pressure, but it is normal when you play against Zverev,” the 24-time major winner said.
“My game is based on a lot of running. I am 38 years old. It is not easy to keep running like that but, OK, it works,” he added.
SINNER OUTPLAYS BUBLIK TO RETURN TO PARIS SEMIS
Sinner played according to the script, as he outplayed Alexander Bublik, 6-1, 7-5, 6-0, in their quarterfinals matchup.
Moreover, the 23-year-old Italian top seed needed only an hour and 49 minutes to oust the world No.62.
Furthermore, Sinner showed his dominance in this one, making 31 winners and limiting himself to just 13 unforced errors.
“We’ve played each other a couple of times already, so we already knew what to expect a little bit,” the Italian said.
“I’m very happy with how I’ve arrived in the semifinals,” he added.
BOISSON IN LAST FOUR AFTER STUNNING ANDREEVA
Boisson is also in the last four after she stunned teenage sensation Mirra Andreeva, 7-6(6), 6-3, in the quarterfinals.
Furthermore, the 22-year-old French No.361 became the first woman to reach the semifinals at her debut Grand Slam since Jennifer Capriati at the 1990 French Open.
Moreover, she resumes her bid as the first Frenchwoman to win the title at Roland Garros since Mary Pierce 25 years ago.
Boisson will next face American No3 Coco Gauff for a place in the final.
“It’s incredible. Thank you for supporting me like this. I have no words,” Boisson said.
“”I don’t think it’s a miracle. It’s just the result of hard work. Nothing else,” she added.
