Alexander Zverev's Wimbledon Match Continues Today: All Information and Broadcasts for Austria

The tension at the Wimbledon Championships is almost palpable, especially in the first-round match between Alexander Zverev and Arthur Rinderknech. After the two opponents delivered a neck-and-neck duel in the first two sets, it was 1:1 (6:7, 7:6) when the match suddenly had to be interrupted. The reason is the famous curfew in Wimbledon: From 11:00 PM local time (midnight our time in Austria), no play is allowed on the venerable grounds.

Zverev's rocky road to the Grand Slam dream

Alexander Zverev's start at Wimbledon was by no means a walk in the park. In the first set, the German stumbled significantly and had to concede it to the strong-playing Rinderknech. Even in the second set, Zverev was under enormous pressure, fending off several set points and eventually fighting his way to a set win in a nerve-wracking tiebreak. His loud cheers after the 10:8 in the tiebreak testified to the immense tension and relief.

The 28-year-old from Hamburg continues to chase his big dream of a first Grand Slam title. On the "sacred grass" of Wimbledon, he has never been able to get past the round of 16. Despite the initial difficulties, Zverev was optimistic before the tournament: "I feel comfortable on the surface and comfortable with my game," he explained, as his form on grass was convincing after tournaments in Stuttgart (final) and Halle (semifinal). But he knows: "I have to show it on the court first."

Surprises and tough challenges on the way to the title

Wimbledon 2025 has already brought some surprises. In the possible further course of the tournament, Alexander Zverev could face his nemesis Taylor Fritz (USA/No. 5), whose own match was also interrupted due to weather. Another remarkable development is the surprising exit of Daniil Medvedev, a potential quarter-final opponent, already in the first round.

These early turbulences in the tournament field show that every match on the way to the Wimbledon final presents a challenge. For Zverev, this means that he must present himself in top form from the start to keep his dream of a Grand Slam title alive. The continuation of his match against Rinderknech is the next step on this ambitious path.
