Alexander Zverev is a clay-court great who wants forever to be a name on the list of Roland-Garros champions. Twenty-eight years of age and ranked No. 3, Zverev goes 28-10 in 2025, 17-6 on clay, and came from behind to win in Munich at the hands of Ben Shelton, 6-2, 6-4. As a finalist in the 2024 French Open, Zverev has reached his eighth consecutive Round of 16, evidence of great consistency. The last time he went on court he was victorious against Flavio Cobolli, 6-2, 7-6(4), 6-1, with the German maintaining control mainly from the baseline, winning 77.5% of his service games, and converting 43.8% of his break points (Business Standard, Reuters). Posts on X praise his “mental edge,” but some note his inconsistent season, with early exits in Hamburg and Madrid. Zverev told Reuters (May 31), "This court is special--best and worst memories here." Can he keep his concentration while facing a pesky Griekspoor?
🇳🇱 Tallon Griekspoor: form and statistics
Tallon Griekspoor is that challenger who has the bite to threaten Zverev’s reign. The 28-year-old Dutchman ranked No. 35 and with a 23-12 record in 2025, 12-6 on clay, reaches a Grand Slam Round of 16 for the first time in his career. After that, he wrapped up the tournament with a victory against Ethan Quinn on May 31, 4-6, 6-1, 6-7(2), 6-1, 6-4, winning in a 3 hours 16-minute thriller, while converting only 35% of his breakpoints (Sportskeeda, Tennis Tonic). In 2025, Griekspoor has been 7-5 on clay, yet resilience is his middle name—he came up with a stunning comeback victory over Zverev at Indian Wells in March 2025, 4-6, 7-6, 7-5, having saved match points (posts on X). He stated to TheTennisLetter (March 7), "Beating Sascha was a mental thing—I had chances in all our battles.” Will the history of taking Zverev to the edge make Griekspoor able to upset him again?

On X, users called their matches "absolute heartbreak" for Griekspoor, who has often had Zverev on the ropes. This could become chaotic on clay, considering the long battles in their history.
