Half before time?

The winner of this quarter-final should logically advance to the final since he will have to play Tabilo or Zhang, the hardest part is now!

Fritz impressed me again today during his victory against Dimitrov, I found him super patient, tolerant of long exchanges and strong in the head. He saved a lot of break points and ended up breaking after the 10th set point in the second set. Enough to gain confidence and arrive with solid ambitions to play Zverev. Because Zverev is heavy, very heavy. The German is going a little under the radar this week but he is in the quarter and remains the favorite for the final victory with Tsitsipas in my opinion. Against Borges we saw him more aggressive than usual, he is often criticized for being a little too passive and this is not the case recently, he seriously feels the backhanded ball and is seriously gaining strength. When I see his last matches I see a serious contender to win Roland given his history there and the level he seems to have. I emphasize the verb "seem" because he didn't have a real test in Rome, it will be tomorrow against Fritz that we will really be able to see where he really is. 4/3 for Z in H2H, the last one is a little distorted since he was coming back from injury. I think he has the game to piss off Fritz: he loves long rallies, moves well, raises well, serves better. Fritz will have to put out a perfect match to get through this in my opinion because Zverev seems to reach his final form just before Roland, as if by chance!
