Alexander Zverev advanced to the US Open final after overcoming Karen Khachanov, securing a place in his third straight Grand Slam championship match and keeping alive his bid for a second major of the season.
Zverev's victory continues a sustained run of form at the highest level of the sport. Reaching three consecutive major finals is a demonstration of consistency on tennis's biggest stages and marks a significant moment in his season as he chases further silverware.
The win came after a hard-fought semi-final contest in New York against Khachanov, who provided a stern challenge throughout the match. Zverev managed to prevail and will now turn his attention to the title match, aiming to convert this run of finals appearances into another major crown.
He will face the winner of the tournament's remaining semi-final in the championship match. The outcome in the final will determine whether Zverev can add a second major to his achievements this year and cap off an impressive run at the Grand Slam level.
