This may have been the most “accident-prone” Roland Garros tournament in years. First, due to the absence of the defending champion, Carlos Alcaraz, who could not defend his title. Then, the high temperatures experienced in late May and early June have caused some players to struggle to compete. Among them, the current world No. 1, Jannik Sinner, who could not overcome cramps and fell to Juan Manuel Cerúndolo.
Djokovic also exited early, in the third round against Joao Fonseca. And finally, one of the two semifinals could not be played because the Italian Matteo Arnaldi, who had been the tournament’s great revelation, fell ill. Only the final remains, in which Alexander Zverev has everything in his favor to finally secure his first Grand Slam title. And you can watch it on Movistar Plus for 9.99 euros per month.
Cobolli – Zverev: the Grand Final in Paris
The second Grand Slam of the year is coming to an end, and there is a surprise in the final, as the one who was expected to be the main rival, Jannik Sinner, is not there. The absence of Carlos Alcaraz due to injury left him a clear path to what would have been his first major victory in Paris. For now, it will continue to elude him.
What can finally make his Grand Slam debut is Alexander Zverev. The German tennis player, despite being world No. 3, does not have one in his palmarès. He has played finals, but he has not won any.
So far, the German and Italian have faced each other four times. Zverev has won 3 and Cobolli only 1. In 2026 they have met twice. The first, in the Munich semifinal, where the Italian won 6-3 6-3. The most recent is Alexander Zverev’s victory in the Madrid Masters 1000 quarterfinals, by 6-1 6-4. Who will break the tie in 2026 to claim his first Grand Slam? You can watch it on Movistar Plus this Sunday, June 7 at 3:00 PM.
