Download French Open Daily: Zverev overcomes Cobolli to finally win a Grand Slam

Katie Smith is joined by correspondent Russell Fuller and former ATP Tour winner Ryan Harrison to analyse Alex Zverev’s victory in the men’s singles final at Roland Garros.

We hear from Zverev, and ask whether this first Grand Slam victory can help him close the gap to Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner.

They also look at what Flavio Cobolli will have learned from this experience and reflect on a fascinating fortnight in Paris.
