Epic. Alexander Zverev managed to come back from a very adverse match, saving two match points against Daniil Medvedev who is out of the ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025 and sees his dream of playing in the ATP Finals 2025 completely vanish. The final result was 2-6 6-3 7-6 (5) in favor of the German, who will face Sinner in the semifinals.

One of the most impressive rivalries in recent tennis history. Daniil Medvedev and Alexander Zverev have faced each other 22 times, not without tension between them, controversies, but above all, very good tennis. They lived another memorable episode in the quarterfinals of the ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025, both players clearly on the rise after a challenging year for their interests. As usual, it has been more than just a match.

How Zverev defeated Medvedev in the 2025 Paris Masters quarterfinals

Like a whirlwind. That's how Medvedev stormed the court in a first set where the best version of the Russian was seen. He found that desired balance between aggressiveness and consistency that makes him so dangerous, unnerving a Sascha unable to find openings on the court and seemed on his way to a victory that brought him closer to his goal of being in Turin, at least as an alternate. But everything can change rapidly in tennis, especially between two players who know each other so well.

The Russian took an early break in the second set, but suddenly, Zverev drew on his pride, took a bit more risk in his shots, gained depth, and fully engaged in the match. It was enough to awaken the old ghosts of the Russian, who started playing incoherently to the despair of his team and his wife, who left the court when her husband began to misbehave. He tried to hold on, but Sascha was brilliant with his serve and had that extra bit of energy.

Zverev saved two match points in the third set

The third set was predicted to be thrilling, and all expectations were not only met but exceeded. Marathon rallies, constant changes of direction, emotional ups and downs, drop shots, net approaches, unforced errors, brilliant winners... Everything was in a set that delighted the fans and aged both players, on the verge of a nervous breakdown. The Russian had two match points, but he was faced with a great serve from the German initially and an impeccable backhand after hitting a 130 km/h serve. 

It all led to a tiebreak not suitable for the faint-hearted, where Alexander Zverev showed a bit more composure in the decisive moments, making a strong statement in his title defense. A tough blow for Daniil Medvedev and his aspirations of securing a spot in Turin, while the German will try to challenge Jannik Sinner in the semifinals of the ATP Rolex Paris Masters 2025. A huge confidence boost for the current world number 3, who dreams of finding his best form again.
