ZVEREV IN SINGLES FINAL, TOP 2 SEEDS IN DOUBLES FINALS PREVIEW: Defending Nice champion Dominic Thiem had the best year of his career in 2015, posting a personal-best 36 wins on the ATP World Tour. Should he defend his title on Saturday, Thiem will earn his 36th victory of the 2016 season, one shy of World No. 1 Novak Djokovic for most on tour. His opponent, first-time finalist Alexander Zverev, already has a career- high 21 victories this season. With a win over Thiem, Zverev will pass 19th-ranked Nick Kyrgios for the most wins among Next Generation players (Top 200 and born after December 31, 1994). 2016 WINS ON ATP WORLD TOUR 2016 WINS OF NEXT GENERATION 1 Novak Djokovic 37 1T Alexander Zverev 21 2 Dominic Thiem 35 1T Nick Kyrgios 21 3 Kei Nishikori 29 3 Borna Coric 14 4 Rafael Nadal 27 4 Hyeon Chung 8 5 Milos Raonic 24 5 Taylor Fritz 7 Zverev, 19, hopes to become the first teenager to win a title since Marin Cilic at 2008 New Haven and the youngest player to win a title since Kei Nishikori at 2008 Delray Beach. After saving two match points in his quarter-final win over Gilles Simon, Zverev would be the sixth player to win a title this season from match point down. He would also be the third first-time champion of the year, following in the footsteps of Kyrgios at Marseille and Diego Schwartzman at Istanbul. On the other side of the court, Thiem is trying to become the 10th player to repeat as champion through 32 tournaments this season. He has lost zero sets and only 13 games thus far this week, while Zverev has dropped a set in all four of his matches. Factor in Thiem’s first-round bye and the Austrian has played six hours and 38 minutes less than Zverev at the Open de Nice Côte d’Azur.

  • Roger Federer Knew He Needed to Bounce Back on Tuesday at The
    Roger Federer knew he needed to bounce back on Tuesday at the Nitto ATP Finals after suffering a straight-sets loss in his opening match of the tournament against Dominic Thiem. And the Swiss superstar did just that, defeating Matteo Berrettini 7-6(2), 6-3 behind a clear game plan and effective serving. According to Hawkeye, Federer zoned in on the Berrettini backhand and made sure to keep the points short in his triumph. The six-time Nitto ATP Finals champion struck 62 per cent of his shots to the Berrettini backhand. That tactic was most visible when the 38-year-old had a forehand, as he targeted the Italian's backhand with 68 per cent of his shots off that wing. Federer made a concerted effort to keep the ball out of the middle of the court. He hit just three balls mid-rally (excluding serves and returns) into the middle third of the court, whereas Berrettini directed 24 per cent of his balls down the middle. Federer Shot Placement vs. Berrettini Federer Forehand Placement vs. Berrettini Berrettini spread his forehands around far more than Federer. He hit just 47 per cent of his forehands to the 103-time tour-level titlist's backhand, while going to the Swiss' forehand 41 per cent of the time. Berrettini Forehand Placement vs. Federer Federer interestingly employed a different tactic with his serve. Instead of continuing to attack the Italian's backhand, he went to Berrettini's forehand. He hit 59 per cent of his first serves in the ad court to the forehand and 48 per cent in the deuce court.
