The two rivals and great clay-court players meet again as it is Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Alexander Zverev in the Madrid Open 2022 Semi-Finals.
World No. 3 Alexander Zverev will face his biggest obstacle yet in his path of defending his Madrid Open title as he goes up against world No. 5 Stefanos Tsitsipas on Saturday, May 8.
Extending his match win streak in Madrid to 8, Zverev would be aiming for his 3rd final here having won the Tournament twice already in 2018 and 2021. After being forced to the wire by Marin Cilic in the 1st round and then not getting to play the whole of his Ro16 match as Musseti retired because of an injury, Zverev finally had a decent outing, beating Felix in straight sets in the quarter-finals.
Stefanos Tsitsipas has been in great form in Madrid having dropped only 1 set in reaching the semi-finals. Stefanos Tsitsipas beat the hard-hitting Andrey Rublev in 3 sets in their quarterfinal showdown. Tsitsipas will be looking for his 2nd Madrid open finals after 2019. Tsitsipas is the player with the most wins on Tour this year and has already a clay tournament this year winning the Monte Carlo Masters.
