This is a match that is considered to be balanced between two players who are considered to be the new generation of tennis players. However, the Norwegian player is considered to be the better player in the French Open semi-finals as Zverev has not been in good form recently after being injured. In their previous meetings, Zverev had 2 wins and 1 loss against Rudd.
Rudd easily reached the French Open final
However, in the semi-final of the Grand Slam tournament, Rudd showed his dominance over the former US Open runner-up. With an early break from Zverev, the current French Open runner-up continuously led the German player before winning the first set with a score of 6/3.
Entering the second set, Rudd continued to play solidly on his serve and scored a goal when Zverev served to win another set with a score of 6/4. At this point, the German player was no longer himself and gave up in the next set to lose "white" 0/6 to the disappointment of the fans.
Zverev disappoints fans
Speaking after his win over Zverev, French Open runner-up Rudd said: "I'm trying to go out there without pressure. From start to finish, everything went my way. Hopefully the third time can be the charm for me. It will be very difficult in the final. Novak is playing to be the greatest. He will be playing for the 23rd time, and I will be playing for the first time."
Rudd reaches second consecutive French Open final
Rudd's opponent in the final will be Djokovic, who will be playing in his 7th French Open final and 34th Grand Slam final of his career. Meanwhile, this will be Rudd's third Grand Slam final. At last year's French Open, Rudd lost to Nadal in the final and the Norwegian also appeared in the final match of the US Open.
