Paris | The Paris dream is over for Alex de Minaur, his hopes of reaching the French Open semi-final ground into the Roland Garros clay-court dust by the relentless Olympic champion Alexander Zverev.
The first Australian man into the quarter-finals since Lleyton Hewitt two decades ago, de Minaur’s improbable adventure came to a halt in his first prime-time night slot on Court Philippe Chatrier as the towering German prevailed 6-4 7-6 (7-5) 6-4.
