Alexander Zverev vs. Grigor Dimitrov Highlights | 2023 US Open Round 3

I've had big interest in Zverev and his comeback, particularly here since his 1st round showing...he held up beautifully vs an on-fire Dmitrov who if you watched his 1st round match, played fearless and became a crowd favorite on that little court/stands.

Dimitrov is too defensive. His backhand is great but it's a waste because He doesn't go for winners. SMH.....

Looks like dmitro. Just gave up sfter yhe second set

I see both players choking at different times. Grigor blew his lead in the 2nd.

Those first 2 sets were madness, what a thriller of a match

Shame Dimitrov faded away. He’s an enigma. Always thought he’d achieve more. Always remember the match he played against Nadal.

Awful highlights. You only showed the last point of the final set????

In the thumbnail, they always show the winner, but when handsome man Dimitrov plays, he’s going on the thumbnail.

Grigor was udoubtedly the better player. Sad that his physical health got the better of him

The 🦁 king in action ! Well done Sascha ! 👍👏👏👏

Grigor use to have a baby face.

The thumbnail shows Dimitrov..... So how did Zverev win?

For once winner not on thumbnail

😂 Zverev watching to much Elvis with the upper side lip curl.

I think if Grigir edged the second set he would have won the match!!
But the fact he lost the second set despite fighting so hard toe to toe and almost beating Alexander, he lost heart he was disappointed , which is why flattened in the 3rd and 4th set.
I feel for him. Alexander was lucky to clench the 2nd set.

Guys they didn’t show the winner in the thumbnail!

was close until dimitrov got injured...

How long has Dimitrov been with Lacoste???

Still haven't learned to put both players on the thumbnail. Is that too much to ask? Also, it's 2023, still showing the video at 720p!? What's the matter with you, USTA?

The only highlight shown the thumbnail of loser. All US open highlight thumbnail show winner' photo and already knew who will win by seeing thumbnail 😅

Highlights are way to long

Dimitrov‘s back hurt for sure. No way he loses two straight sets 1/6 without back pain in my opinion. Of course he will not use that as an excuse because he is a man. He is our Bulgarian Hero 🇧🇬

Dimitrov fell apart after missing on closing the second set, he was playing really well until then. I guess age is slowly taking a toll on him.

Sakkari is just a little girl compared to this legendary choker.

Para que los vídeos sean aún más miserables en su extensión propongo al US Open que haga vídeos de un segundo por set; sería "maravilloso". ¿Te imaginas un partido a cinco sets resumido en cinco segundos?. Ahora con vuestro permiso, o sin él, me voy a vomitar un ratito.

Sadly Dimitrov had leg problems starting with the 3rd set

what a pity for Grigor, not sure why he melted down from the third round till the end. He deserved to win. Zverev still can get a lot, not to forget he is the actual Olympic tennis champion...this is more than a Grand Slam winner...

fun story, last year at the us open, i watched mcdonald and shelton practice, and they sat down for a moment, and then i said to mckenzie mcdonald, "ill buy you mcdonalds if you win" and mcdonald laughed. Also in the same practice, shelton hit a ball outside of the court, i grabbed it, and threw it at sheltons face, and shelton barely dodged it and gave me the stink eye lol

slice slice slice slice slice slice.... weakest backhand in top 100 right here

Wow. Not sure what happened here. Pretty strange score coming out of match hosted by two veteran players. 😟

Well after 2 fantastic sets we get - nothing. I said it before and I'll say it again, it's not his backhand, it's mental.

Q - Why is tennis world incomplete
A- Because Zvere is yet to win a slam!!!

choke artist !!!!!!! grigor

sheesh

وقضي الأمر*وإلى الله ترجع الأمور

Was thinking how much I do not miss Krygios this year.

I watched this match live from courtside and I’ve got to say that the first two sets were out of this world in terms of quality

Having watched the first 2 sets on Eurosport live, I'd like to thank all those who contributed to turning such a high quality work of art (first 2 sets especially) into a miniature. Great effort indeed ! 👏

Well done zeverv

Zverev was my pre-tourney pick to win the title. He is due....then again I said the same thing about Dimitrov for a decade

Happy Zverev is back where he belongs..

Zverev, enough potential to cause a big upset in the US Open, also experience defeating Alcaraz in the major.

If Zverev wants to defeat Sinner and Alcaraz he needs to flatten out his forehand, the guy's way to passive

Une carrière FIFA avec Marseille!! Ça passera le temps🤌

Demi is trash need to miss monfils

A bit sad to see Dimitrov get old before winning a Slam...
