Alex de Minaur's fantastic run at the French Open came to an end, as he was defeated in straight sets by Alexander Zverev.
It was still a tightly fought and close encounter, with the Aussie going down by narrow margins in each set, including a tiebreak in the second.
Despite his best efforts, he fell to the German in the tiebreak 7-5, and was unable to recover as he lost the final set 6-4.
