Summary

  • Alexander Zverev and Flavio Cobolli meet Sunday in the Roland-Garros men’s final, with Zverev one win from his first Grand Slam title after losing all 3 previous major finals.
  • A depleted draw shaped the matchup: Zverev and Felix Auger-Aliassime were the only ATP top-10 players left after the first round, and Cobolli reached the final after a semifinal walkover when Matteo Arnaldi fell ill.
  • Cobolli enters fresher, but Zverev leads the career head-to-head 3-1; Cobolli’s most recent win came in Munich’s semifinals earlier this season.
  • The final starts at 9 a.m. ET at Stade Roland-Garros in Paris, with betting odds listing Zverev at -429 and Cobolli at +322.
