Rafa and Iga, ensuring that nobody gets their ticket money’s worth in Paris for 19 years and counting

Zverev tosses in two double faults and Charlie breaks to start the final.

Edit: Then Zverev breaks right back.

Carlitos breaks again to take the opening set 6-3. Looking very good thus far today.

Zverev has stepped it up in set 2 and Charlie is off the boil.

Charlie, what are you doing?!? Serving for set 3 at 5-3 and you proceed to lose three straight games.

It's not looking too good for him right now. He was just telling the umpire it's not a clay court it's a hard court out there

Zverev still has plenty of mental scar tissue from losing that US Open final a few years ago to Thiem. He needs to continue to mix things up and change pace/spin, still plenty of tennis to be played today (hopefully).

Not even close on the Hawk-Eye review...Stop your bitching, Zverev.

Edit: Followed up by a beauty Rafa banana forehand passing shot down the line for the break.

We're going five as Charlie sends a breadstick over to Zverev.

Zverev misses two sitter volleys, throws in a double fault, and sends a routine backhand five feet long. You hate to see it, I mean you love to see it.

I do like the poetry of Zverev starting with Nadal and falling to Alcaraz at the end, like a sad Olympic torchbearer between two giants.

Not sure when Chokerev will get a better look at a major. Pretty easy draw (yes that includes the ghost of Rafa), peaked for this tournament, facing a beat up Carlos. He’s heading towards the tail of his prime years while the Sincaraz hegemony is just beginning. Maybe there is a bit of justice in sports sometimes after all.
