    What's the story

    World number six Alexander Zverev claimed a straight-set victory over Serbia's Laslo Djere in the third round of the 2021 French Open.

    The German has advanced to the last 16, beating the 25-year-old 6-2, 7-5, 6-2.

    Zverev earned his second straight-set victory in Paris this year after getting tested by Roman Safiullin and Oscar Otte in the first two rounds respectively.

    Match

    How did the match pan out?

    Zverev broke in the very first game, and wrapped up the set in 40 minutes.

    The Serbian was quick to respond as he held a lead of 3-0 in the following set.

    He was moments away from taking the set at 5-2, however, Zverev reeled off five consecutive games to win 7-5.

    The final set remained one-sided as Zverev won comfortably.

    Information

    Zverev struck a total of 31 winners

    In his third-round victory, Zverev struck a total of 31 winners and four aces. He won 49 per cent of the receiving points (52/106). Zverev also won 18 out of 24 net points. On the other hand, Djere committed 45 unforced errors.

    Fourth round

    Zverev reaches Roland Garros last 16 for the fourth time

    Zverev is now 21-8 in the season. Earlier this month, the German won the Madrid Open by beating Matteo Berrettini in the final.
