  • Alexander Zverev will meet Félix Auger-Aliassime on Friday in a winner-advances match after both moved to 1–1 in group play.
  • Félix Auger-Aliassime kept his campaign alive by outlasting Ben Shelton 4:6, 7:6 (9:7), 7:5 in a three-set battle.
  • Zverev created multiple break chances against Sinner but failed to convert, missing seven opportunities across the match.
