Tennis: Top-seeded Zverev crashes out to Griekspoor at Indian Wells

# Tennis: Dutchman Tallon Griekspoor stunned top-seeded Alexander Zverev 4-6, 7-6, 7-6 in the second round at Indian Wells on Friday. The world number two who is heading the field of the prestigious ATP Masters event, is the first Indian Wells men’s top seed to lose his opening match since Andy Murray in 2017. The defeat continued a lacklustre run for Zverev since he fell to Jannik Sinner in the Australian Open final. Since then, the German had made early exits at Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro and Acapulco.
