The quarterfinals of Roland Garros begin with the reissue of the final of the Mutua Madrid Open, a Zverev – Carlos Alcaraz in the iconic Philippe-Chatrier. In the Spanish capital, the young man from Murcia swept the German in two sets to win his second Masters 1,000 title.
But today, the story is different: it is a five-set match in which both arrive in full physical faculties. In the round of 16 match, Alexander, number three in the world, beat one of the sensations of the tournament, the Spaniard Bernabé Zapata, in three sets; while Alcaraz (sixth in the ATP) got rid of the silver medal of the last games, also in three sets, Khachanov.
The match will begin around 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday and can be followed on Eurosport 1. Whoever manages to win this tough duel will play the semifinals of the French Grand Slam against the winner of the classic Novak Djokovic – Rafael Nadal.
