German tennis star Alexander Zverev finally won a Grand Slam title at the French Open, defeating Flavio Cobolli in five sets. After years of near-misses — including a heartbreaking final at the 2020 US Open — Zverev dropped to the clay and sobbed when the match ended. It was one of the most emotional moments in recent tennis history.
