Comms minister says Malaysia has no relations with Hamas’ military wing, slams Meta for removing news reports of PM Anwar’s meeting with Palestinian politiciansROME, May 16 — Alexander Zverev reached his 18th Masters semi-final in Rome yesterday but only after a worrying fall which sparked memories of the horror injury he suffered at the French Open two years ago.
The 2017 champion cut his left wrist and a finger in the tumble and required treatment from the tournament physio before he continued the match.Zverev, 27, suffered a serious ankle injury at the 2022 French Open after falling on the clay of Roland Garros during his semi-final against Rafael Nadal and missed the rest of the season.
Holger Rune, who lost last year’s final to Medvedev, Madrid champion Andrey Rublev — ranked sixth in the world — and beaten finalist Felix Auger-Aliassime have also been eliminated. “It’s definitely the best tennis of my life right now, trying to keep a poker face there because inside I’m just so nervous, every time trying to close out the match gets a little bit tighter.”
“With this amazing atmosphere and with this amazing support... that’s why I’m super motivated here and that’s why I always say that this is the dream tournament for me to win,” said Sabalenka.
