Wimbledon: Zverev beats Fritz to reach fourth round
World number three Alexander Zverev has reached the fourth round of Wimbledon with a five-set victory over Taylor Fritz.
The German, who is seeded second, won 6-7 (3), 6-4, 6-3, 1-6, 6-4 on Court One.
Fritz, who was playing in the third round of a Grand Slam for the first time, took the opening set on a tie-break and levelled the match at two sets all with a dominant display in the fourth.
But Zverev, who has reached the semi-finals at Wimbledon in the past two years, dug deep to win the decider and book his place in the last 16.
He will face either 16th seed Felix Auger-Aliassime or Miomir Kecmanovic in the next round.
