BRUSSELS (Dispatches) - Top seed Alexander Zverev won his second ATP title in Cologne in the space of a week with a quickfire 6-2 6-1 demolition of Argentine Diego Schwartzman in the final of the bett1HULKS Championship on Sunday.
The German world number seven had claimed his first ATP crown of the year by besting Canada’s Felix Auger-Aliassime 6-3 6-3 to win the bett1HULKS Indoor title at the same venue last Sunday.
Zverev, this year’s U.S. Open runner-up, sent down nine aces and won an incredible 83 percent of his first serve points as he cruised through the clash with 28-year-old second seed Schwartzman in 71 minutes without being broken.
"Two days ago I wasn’t sure if I was going to finish the tournament. Now I’m here as the champion,” a beaming Zverev said while accepting the trophy.
