How to watch Djokovic vs Zverev: Live stream 2025 French Open quarter-final for FREE
Alexander Zverev needs to start beating big players to be ranked in the same bracket as Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz and, indeed, Novak Djokovic, as he feels he should. For all of Djokovic's extraordinary achievements, he's 38 years old and was on an eight-month barren run up until last week. The onus is very much on the big-serving German. You can watch Djokovic vs Zverev live streams from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free. The Djokovic vs Zverev match takes place on Wednesday, June 4. ► Start time (est.): 2:15 p.m. ET / 11:15 a.m. PT / 7:15 p.m. BST / 4:15 a.m. AEST (Thursday)► FREE STREAM — 9Now (Australia)► U.S. — TNT and TruTV via Sling TV / Max► U.K. — Discovery+► Watch anywhere — Try NordVPN 100% risk free Djokovic has very much had the upper hand in their previous meetings. The Serb leads their head-to-head by 8-5, and even with a torn hamstring he took Zverev to a first-set tiebreaker at Australian Open earlier this year, before finally seeing sense and retiring. No.3 seed Zverev has reached the final of three different grand slams but lost them all. There's no question, however, that the French Open is the 28-year-old's favorite major. He'd reached the last four three years in a row before getting to last year's final, and he's dropped only one set at Roland Garros this time out. Djokovic, inevitably, has gone one better, posting straight-sets wins all the way. That record-setting 25th grand slam title has eluded him for nearly two years and, at the quarter-finals stage, there's no way he's bowing out without a fight.

How it works: During the 90-minute television special, the pups will play a canine version of hockey on synthetic ice. Dog-loving celebrities Jamie Lee Curtis, Nikki Glaser, Paula Abdul and Michael Bublé will appear, representing a shelter of their choice. What they're saying: "There's no need to purchase a puppy when you can open up your heart and home to give a wonderful life to a puppy that needs one," executive producer Michael Levitt tells Axios.

The first French Open since Rafael Nadal's retirement This is the first time the event will be held since the man known as the King of Clay, Rafael Nadal, retired last season.
