    Points won by each set: | 28-12, 30-21 |
    Points won directly behind the serve:
    30 % Federer – 13 of 42
    24 % Zverev – 12 of 49

    [5] Federer’s masterclass performance, he outplayed Zverev [12] in every facet of the game, especially in the net-play. Big serves, dropshots, irregular attacking the net, and the 20-year-old, 12 cm taller German was disoriented. FedEx said: “It’s great to get off to a good start in the finals and then remind yourself that you’ve been playing good tennis all week. You start swinging freely, things start clicking, you realise your opponent is under pressure and you keep pressuring him.” 14 years earlier, Federer won the final on the same court after the same score, also against a German player, then applying a regular serve-and-volley game.

    Federer’s route to his 92nd title:
    1 Yuichi Sugita 6-3, 6-1
    2 Mischa Zverev 7-6(4), 6-4
    Q Florian Mayer 6-3, 6-4
    S Karen Khachanov 6-4, 7-6(5)
    W Alexander Zverev 6-1, 6-3

    Serve & volley: Federer 7/7, Zverev 0/2
