The third-ranked Alexander Zverev joined No. 1 Novak Djokovic and No. 2 Daniil Medvedev in the last four at the season-ending event for the top eight players after beating Hubert Hurkacz 6-2, 6-4 on Thursday.
Having qualified second in his group behind Medvedev, Zverev바카라s semifinal opponent will be Djokovic, who won the other group.
Daniil Medvedev바카라s semifinal opponent will be determined on Friday when Andrey Rublev meets Casper Ruud on the final day of round-robin play.
Alexander Zverev lost to Novak Djokovic at the Australian Open and US Open this year but beat Djokovic at the Tokyo Olympics en-route to the gold medal.
바카라We played basically every single big event this year on hard court against each other,바카라 Zverev said. 바카라So it바카라s only right that we play each other here as well. ... It바카라s always close when we play each other, so I바카라m looking forward to hopefully another tough one.바카라
Alexander Zverev, the 2018 champion at the finals, didn바카라t face a single break point against Hubert Hurkacz, a first-time qualifier.
Both players served 11 aces amid quick conditions inside the Pala Alpitour.
바카라There is going to be a lot more long rallies (against Djokovic),바카라 Zverev said. 바카라I think we are going to run a lot more. I think we are going to suffer, in a way, a lot more, as well.
바카라Every single match that we played we both needed to be at our best. One or two points decided the matches. I expect no different here.바카라
