Zverev claims spot in Paris quarters

An aggressive Alexander Zverev punched his ticket into the French Open quarterfinals with a 6-1 6-4 6-3 win over Bulgarian 28th seed Grigor Dimitrov on Monday to raise hopes that his barren Grand Slam run could finally end.

Playing in the late session on Philippe Chatrier for the third match in a row, 22nd seed Zverev was at his dominant best again as he returned to the quarterfinals for a fifth time in six years.

Up next for the towering twice Roland Garros semifinalist is Argentine Tomas Martin Etcheverry.
