The former world number two Zverev decided the quarterfinal match after four sets, the score 6-4, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4.

For Oleksandr Zverev, the opponent on the way to the final will be determined after the match between the Dane Holger Rune (6 ATP) and the Norwegian Kasper Ruud (4 ATP).

In the other semifinal, world leader Carlos Alcaraz will meet Novak Djokovic.
