Zverev secured his second-round victory at Roland Garros with a score of 3-6, 6-1, 6-2, 6-3 against De Jong.

After a shaky start, Zverev regained control and dominated his opponent in the next three sets. The difference came down to crucial points where the Dutchman lacked technical precision and efficiency. Despite creating 9 break points, the world No. 88 converted only two.

The German, meanwhile, took some time to settle into the match but ultimately sealed the win after 2 hours and 58 minutes of play. Both players showed aggression, committing over 40 unforced errors combined.

This marks the 8th consecutive time Zverev has won at least two matches in this tournament. Since 2018, he holds a 34-7 record at this Parisian Grand Slam and now has 27 wins this season. For a spot in the round of 16, he will face the winner of the all-Italian clash between Arnaldi and Cobolli.
