Top-seed Alexander Zverev of Germany advanced to the semifinals of the Chengdu Open at Chengdu, China, by rallying for a 5-7, 7-5, 6-2 victory Sunday over Miomir Kecmanovic of Serbia.

The third-seeded Dimitrov earned a convincing 6-4, 6-1 victory in the quarterfinals against Christopher O'Connell of Australia. Dimitrov won 68 percent of his second-serve points and converted three of his eight break-point chances.
