Alexander Zverev Advances to US Open Semifinals, Set to Face Karen KhachanovPreviousNext

Alexander Zverev advanced to the US Open semifinals with a straight-sets 6-2, 7-5, 6-1 win over Botic van de Zandschulp, marking his fourth Grand Slam semi-final appearance this season. Despite a slow start marked by five double faults, Zverev regained form and maintained control, breaking key points to secure victory. He will face Karen Khachanov, who reached the semis after Alexander Blockx retired due to injury. Zverev is the only male player to reach all four major semifinals this year, having won the French Open and finished runner-up at Wimbledon.
