Alexander Zverev Advances to French Open Final After Settling Assault Case

The German tennis star agreed to a settlement with his ex-girlfriend, involving a €200,000 payment to the state and charities, just hours before his semifinal victory.

Zverev was accused of assaulting his ex-girlfriend in May 2020 but denied any wrongdoing.
The settlement includes no admission of guilt and aims to end public disputes for the sake of their child.
The case was dropped by a Berlin court after both parties agreed to the settlement.
Zverev's legal issues have cast a shadow over his recent on-court successes.
He defeated Casper Ruud to reach his first French Open final, where he will face Carlos Alcaraz.
