The German’s victory earned him a meeting with defending champion Carlos Alcaraz.
NEW YORK: Former US Open runner-up Alexander Zverev beat sixth seed Jannik Sinner 6-4, 3-6, 6-2, 4-6, 6-3 late on Monday to move into the quarterfinals of the year’s final Grand Slam.
Zverev, who is rediscovering his best form after an ankle injury wrecked his 2022 season, swapped breaks with Sinner early in the contest and was locked in a tight battle until 4-4 before going ahead to take the first set with two aces. Sinner then struggled with cramp in both legs in the next set. The 22-year-old saved five breakpoints to hold for 2-2 but 12th seed Zverev reeled off the next four games.
