Melbourne, Jan. 25 -- Alexander Zverev is chasing his Grand Slam dream, and this Sunday, he reminded the tennis world why he refuses to give up. The 28-year-old German defeated Francisco Cerundolo 6-2, 6-4, 6-4 to reach the quarterfinals of the Australian Open, moving one step closer to the elusive first major title that has narrowly slipped from his grasp three times before.
Last year, Zverev lost in the Melbourne final to Jannik Sinner. Injuries and setbacks had left him frustrated and questioning, but this time, he's back stronger, fitter, and smarter. On court, he dazzled with a mix of serve-and-volley, drop shots, and relentless precision-tools he's honed while learning from past heartbreaks.
