Zverev and Cobolli prepared to clash in French Open final
Summary

Alexander Zverev and Flavio Cobolli will meet in the French Open final on June 7. Both players seek their first Grand Slam title, having developed a friendship through their time together at the 2024 Laver Cup. Zverev, a two-time finalist at Roland Garros, has won their past matchups on clay this season. Cobolli, ranked 10th, reached the final after receiving a walkover in the semifinals.
