Tommy Paul vs Alexander Zverev | Quarter Final | Australian Open 2025 Extended Highlights 🇦🇺

[@francois4663]

Can we just thank Eurosport for putting out highlights so quickly all tournament. And not to mention that they’re EXTENDED highlights too - what some of the other GS’ don’t bother to do! Thank you!

[@giulioscherzy]

yes great job

[@Perebynis]

It´s surprising that Zverev has not won a grand slam title yet, because that guy has every shot in the game. Very hard to beat when he is playing at his best.

[@АкзияшЖильгильдиева]

It's not enough to win GS. You need to know when to use all of your weapons. In crucial moments Zverev often chokes. Even with the best case scenario he lost from 2-0 lead to Thiem in the final of AO

[@ZiggyStardust85]

[@zajaczkowski8372]

Hoping this will be Zverev his first GS title. I think he deserves it.

[@LennyTurner]

Strange match. I watched the whole thing and it was as if Zverev knew that he didn't have to play anywhere near his best to win. Tommy played at a very fast pace and was completely dictating the play, winning and losing points on his terms, not Sasha's. I think Zverev knew after the first few games that Tommy was never going to do enough to win the match, and all he had to do was hang in there and watch Tommy rack up enough unforced errors to lose the match. And that's exactly what happened - Sasha didn't play his best, Tommy had chances, but fumbled at the finish line. The SF against Novak or Carlos will suit Zverev a lot more weirdly I feel.

[@fjr1650]

thats a perfect summary tbh

[@iliastsouktakos604]

Great summary

[@guygriffin9626]

Ironically Tommy Paul pulled a classic Zverev move

[@roryking1]

i think the top players know that they can wait until its cruch time and then go to another level. like tiebreaks and break points.

[@linusn.8905]

Finally someone who recognizes this. Zverev was probably already thinking about the potential semi final against either Alcaraz or Djokovic. Both energy-draining opponents. You can assume that he wanted to preserve the most possible amount of energy, and that reflects his performance today. Present when needed, but other than that, let the other player do the job.

[@kristynamachova-sebevedomi8196]

@@cars2drive298 not bs at all. She's spot on. Tommy was playing amazing until he had to serve for the sets. He simply choked in the big moments

How come there is not a big portion of the comments about that missed match point by Zverev on Paul’s serve? Such a gift can cost him the tournament in other occasions (and it probably has)

Zverev is one of my favorite Tennis players recently, I really hope he wins it all. Stake had him as a favorite so I guess it was expected he won this, didn't seem like Zverev even tried that much, he just let Tommy rack up errors and played solid Tennis.

[@HockeyMan666]

Tommy tried his heart out while Zverev was relaxing haha thats a good way to say it

[@americahasaproblem2632]

Wow Tommy was fighting!!!! Some amazing shots he produced

[@АкзияшЖильгильдиева]

He lost first two sets with serving on the set and after garbage play on the tie breaks.

[@mehmetdogaguvendi580]

Even if Zverev was drastically pushed by Paul at the particular points, German tennis competitor has managed to keep the whole showdown under the composure. Besides, he has gained the most considerable points at the most critial portions against Paul, conserving his energy in the third set within the continuum. It was definitely the toughest clash that my favorite tennis player has competed by now in AO. Huge congratulations to Alexander Zverev for attaining such a scintillating glory!

[@cardigait75]

Thanks Eurosport, love these extended hilights

[@andressuarez6550]

La manera de ganar los dos tie breaks dejó claro quién iba a ganar en mi opinión... Tras perder el tercer set Zverev se puso serio, y a punto estuvo de meter un rosco al extraordinario jugador que - creo - es Paul... Tal como están las cosas, un grandísimo candidato el alemán... Enhorabuena!, saludos...

The best Match i see until now

[@nikitalavrenov4375]

Those volleys from Paul are among the best I've seen precision-wise. And he read Zverev so well. Haven't followed his career until now, but he's very interesting to watch

Tommy Paul is a dangerous player. May not be the most stylish player, but I still don't think we've seen the best from him yet.

8:02 if Tommy somehow turns this match around (had chances, breakpoints for 2:5) after that rally, it would arguably be the best comeback in the history and future of tennis.

[@Enkei6_]

Why does Zverev always grunt like he’s about to sneeze?

[@fred3r1k]

There is an interesting reason for that my friend. Based on longitudinal studies of biomechanical acoustics in professional tennis players, Zverev's characteristic grunt exhibits a unique 73.2 Hz frequency modulation that suggests an evolutionary adaptation of his vestibular system engaging with sub-optimal adenoid positioning during high-velocity rotational movements - a phenomenon previously documented only in hibernating Alpine marmots under laboratory conditions.

Here is one easy prediction: Tommy and Tiafoe will never win a slam if they play any of the top players in the tournament.
