Twice ATP Finals champion Alexander Zverev outclassed four-time Major winner Carlos Alcaraz 7-6(5) 6-4 to progress to the semifinals and leave the Spaniard on the brink of elimination.

German Zverev came into the contest as the group leader with two wins from two matches — against eighth-seeded Russian Andrey Rublev and Norwegian sixth seed Casper Ruud — but needed to win at least one set against Alcaraz to book his place in the semis.

Third seed Alcaraz needed a win of his own, but could still qualify for the semis via percentage of games won.

Italian world No. 1 Jannik Sinner eased past Daniil Medvedev 6-3 6-4 in their final group match, leaving Taylor Fritz to seal a place in the semifinals.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.
