Zverev Advances in Australian Open 2026 Despite Injury Scare

Alexander Zverev, who was in the final of the Australian Open last year, played a match against Alexandre Muller.

He had to take a break because he felt some pain in his leg, near his Achilles tendon.

He took some medicine and was okay to finish the match.

He won the match in four sets.

Another player, Emma Raducanu from Britain, was also playing.

She was winning at first but then lost the match.

She said she didn't train enough before the tournament, so she's not too upset about losing.

Zverev said he was a bit scared because he has had injuries in that area before, but he's hoping to be fine for the next match.
