PARIS — Alexander Zverev has reached the Paris Masters final for the second time after beating former champion Holger Rune 6-3, 7-6. The 2020 runner-up next plays 15th-seeded Frenchman Ugo Humbert after he beat 2018 champion Karen Khachanov 6-7 (6), 6-4, 6-3 to reach his first Masters final. Rune saved one match point with a brilliant cross-court forehand winner. But the third-seeded Zverev held his nerve on the next with a crisp backhand volley at the net. The big-serving German is bidding for his second title of the year and 23rd overall. Humbert goes for his third of 2024 and seventh of his career.
