Zverev beats Ruud to set up French Open final with Alcaraz

New Indian Express  

PARIS: Alexander Zverev exacted revenge on Casper Ruud at the French Open on Friday to reach his second Grand Slam final and first since 2020, with Carlos Alcaraz standing between him and the title. But the German raised his game, reaching his first French Open final and keeping his hopes of a maiden Grand Slam title alive. "I was not ready then to win my first Grand Slam final," said Zverev, the first German man to make the final since Michael Stich in 1996. Ruud was targeting a fourth Grand Slam final, but the two-time Roland Garros runner-up was well below his best and struggling with illness.
