Wimbledon 2026 results: Alexander Zverev defeats injured Taylor Fritz to reach semi-finals and end dismal run

Advertisements

Alexander Zverev produced a dominant display to end his dismal losing streak against an injured Taylor Fritz and reach his first semi-final at Wimbledon.

The second seed had lost his previous seven encounters with Fritz and was losing their head-to-head 10-5, which included two defeats at the All England Club.

But with the American hampered by a knee injury, Zverev capitalised with a near-perfect performance to claim a 6-4 6-4 6-2 victory on Court One – his first win over Fritz in over two years.

A month after winning his maiden Grand Slam singles title at the French Open, Zverev is now only two wins away from a second major trophy and the German held his arms aloft after securing victory in just under two hours.

He will face Arthur Fery in Friday’s semi-final after the British wildcard defeated Italy’s Flavio Cobolli, the runner-up to Zverev in last month’s Roland Garros final.
