Alexander Zverev is one step away from his first Grand Slam title after defeating Jakub Mensik in the French Open semi-finals with a score of 7-5, 6-2, 3-6, 6-3. Zverev's opponent in the final will be Flavio Cobolli, who advanced without playing his semi-final match due to Matteo Arnaldi's withdrawal because of illness. Zverev, the second seed, has previously faced disappointment in three Grand Slam finals, including a loss to Carlos Alcaraz at Roland Garros two years ago. He expressed confidence going into the final, stating, "I hope to play another great match on Sunday." Zverev's experience in his 11th Grand Slam semi-final was evident against the younger Mensik, who struggled to maintain his performance after earlier intense matches. Cobolli, the 10th seed, has impressed throughout the tournament, dropping only two sets so far. The final promises to be a significant test for Zverev as he aims to end a 14-month title drought, with his last victory coming in April 2022.
