French Open: World No. 85 Svajda Upsets Cerundolo, Sets Cobolli Clash In Fourth Round
Stade Roland Garros: Zachary Svajda, the No. 85 player in the ATP Rankings, continued to tread new ground on his main-draw debut at the French Open, stunning 25th seed Francisco Cerundolo in a pulsating five-setter to reach the fourth round at a major for the first time at Stade Roland Garros on Saturday.
The 23-year-old Svajda halted a stirring comeback bid from Cerundolo to earn an emotional 6-3, 6-4, 3-6, 4-6, 6-3 victory. The American, whose father Tom passed away last October after a battle with cancer, pointed to the sky after upsetting World No. 26 Cerundolo across three hours and three minutes on Court 14.
Having established a two-set lead, Svajda appeared to have lost control of his clash with Cerundolo as the Argentine roared back into contention. But he broke Cerundolo’s serve twice early in the deciding set to establish a 4-1 lead.
