<p>Germany&rsquo;s World No.2 Alexander Zverev says he is facing a battle to be fit for the <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/US+Open-all" target="_blank" rel="none noopener"><strong>US Open</strong></a> following surgery on torn ankle ligaments at the French Open.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Zverev only returned to the practice court last Sunday after the injury he suffered during his semi-final against Rafael Nadal at Roland Garros in June.&nbsp;</p>
<p>He turned on his ankle during that match, screaming in pain when trailing Nadal 7-6 (10/8), 6-6 after three hours of play. &nbsp;Speaking in Hamburg at a press conference on Thursday the Tokyo Olympic champion Zverev said: &ldquo;Obviously I am going to try to make it to the US Open even if it&rsquo;s in a very very short time.&rdquo;&nbsp;</p>
