Alexander Zverev fought valiantly against Taylor Fritz in a grueling fourth-round match at Wimbledon. Despite significant injuries that left him 'playing on one leg,' Zverev delivered a robust performance, including 19 aces and 55 winners.

The German, who had been in excellent form after reaching the French Open final, wore a protective leg support following a fall in an earlier round. Zverev's determination was evident as he stretched the match to five sets despite his compromised mobility.
