GAME, SET, MATCH... MEDVEDEV! Zverev 2-6, 2-6 Medvedev: What a brilliant performance by Medvedev who was dominant from start to finish. The world number two will face the world number one, Novak Djokovic, in the final of the 2021 Paris Masters tomorrow!
17:09
ZVEREV 2-5 MEDVEDEV* (2-6): A rare comfortable hold for Zverev, but Medvedev is still in complete control and will now serve for a place in the final of the Paris Masters.
17:06
*ZVEREV 1-5 MEDVEDEV (2-6): Boos around the venue as Zverev appears to tank the final point of a love hold for Medvedev. The Russian is one game away from a comprehensive win.
17:03
ZVEREV 1-4 MEDVEDEV* (2-6): Double break! Medvedev is making everything difficult for Zverev at the moment, illustrated by how the German put a volley in the net on break point.
16:56
*ZVEREV 1-3 MEDVEDEV (2-6): Incredible tennis from the world number two! Zverev is trying a few new ideas, like coming to net quicker, but Medvedev is cruising here. A forehand winner on game point to hold to love.
16:56
16:52
ZVEREV 1-2 MEDVEDEV* (2-6): Break! It's all going against Zverev at the moment who smashes his racquet after missing a volley at the net on break point. Medvedev is in control!
16:44
*ZVEREV 1-1 MEDVEDEV (2-6): A third ace closes out this service game for Medvedev. What does Zverev have left? It feels like he hasn't been able to dominate rallies like he usually does.
16:41
ZVEREV 1-0 MEDVEDEV* (2-6): An important hold of serve for Zverev at the start of this second set. The German got a fortunate net cord on game point. Will things swing his way?
16:36
FIRST SET, MEDVEDEV! Zverev 2-6 Medvedev: Just SIX unforced errors from Medvedev in that first set. The Russian is playing his best tennis since the US Open two months ago!
16:30
ZVEREV 2-5 MEDVEDEV*: Double break! That is Medvedev at his very best. The Russian secures a second break in this first set. The longer rallies are going his way!
16:23
*ZVEREV 2-4 MEDVEDEV: Zverev brought up a break point. It was a decent response from the German after being broken in the last game, but Medvedev is winning the longer rallies.
16:13
ZVEREV 2-3 MEDVEDEV*: Break! Medvedev did such a good job of neutralising the Zverev serve in that game and then the German put a volley in the net on the first break point.
16:09
*ZVEREV 2-2 MEDVEDEV: The US Open champion escapes. Zverev had two break points against the Medvedev serve, but he was slightly tentative and the opportunity passes him by.
16:03
ZVEREV 2-1 MEDVEDEV*: A pretty solid start to this match by both players. Zverev looks to be serving well. That is always such an important factor for the world number four.
16:00
*ZVEREV 1-1 MEDVEDEV: A solid hold of serve from Medvedev. Who is the favourite for this one? Both players have enjoyed very successful years. Zverev might have the edge right now.
15:57
ZVEREV 1-0 MEDVEDEV*: We got a hint of what this match might hold in that first service game - Zverev aces, shaky second serves and effective Medvedev backhands. Zverev holds.
