When everyone expected that it would be an easy victory for the German, Fritz triumphed in the 3^rd set as 1 break was enough for that and the 4^th set was like the 2^nd set – without any break opportunities but this time Taylor won it 7 to 3 points to tie the sets.

In the 5^th set, Zverev had some physical problems and Fritz didn’t allow him any break chances as the American triumphed with 1 break.
