Facing Sinner reminded Alexander Zverev of trying to solve the challenge presented by the 24-time major champion Djokovic.

Jannik Sinner's victory at the 2025 Australian Open was so impressive that it left fans and insiders speechless. The world number 1 is clearly the best on hard courts and seems to be able to extend his dominance on other surfaces as well, dreaming of achieving the 'Calendar Grand Slam'.

Grigor Dimitrov is also out of Rotterdam after suffering an injury in Australia, while World No.3 Alcaraz is now the top seed. Big guns Daniil Medvedev and de Minaur are set to play, with the Aussie hoping to go one better than his runner-up finish to Sinner in 2024.
