It was tense, though, over Flavio Caballa, who was the 10th seed from Italy.

It was 6-1, 4-6, 6-4, 6-7, but then 6-1 in the final set.

He's finally got that grand slam.

It's a tough time to be playing tennis when you think of he's gone through the time of Nadal, Federer even, certainly Djokovic, and now with Sinner and also with Alcaraz.

but it helps when Alcaraz wasn't there and Sinner was out early that this was really probably more pressure on Zverev to win this one because the others weren't there and he's finally done it.

Peter Johnston is going to talk to us about what unfolded.

A history-making French Open.

Jono, thanks for joining us on ACN.

Hi, Whitey.

You summed it up really well.

It was just incredible.

It was actually an epic final and Zverev, it's just a testament to his

resilience overall because he's been knocking on the door.

As you said, he's had those three Grand Slam finals.

He also had a shocker a few years ago in Paris when he did ligaments in his ankle, tripped over the backdrop.

And so, you know, his durability has been enormous.

And even going into two sets all, he dropped, he was up two sets to one, dropped the fourth in a tiebreaker, but was cramping.

And then they had a break and he came out with a bit of a reset in the fifth and he

Yeah, he finally got it done.

Describe him as a player because he's been around a long time.
