Fourth seed Alexander Zverev recovers from early setback to claim hard-fought win over Taylor Fritz and equal his best performance at Wimbledon by reaching fourth round
Alexander Zverev matched his best performance at Wimbledon by coming from a set down to beat Taylor Fritz and reach the fourth round.
The German fourth seed previously made the last 16 four years ago but has discovered an impressive consistency at the grand slams and came through 6-7, 6-4, 6-3, 7-6.
American Fritz was looking to reach the fourth round at a slam for the first time despite having knee surgery less than a month ago, but came up just short.
Alexander Zverev fired 19 aces and hit 45 winners to advance in two hours and 37 minutes
