Top seed Wawrinka, playing in his first tournament since
winning the U.S. Open, was shocked by the fifth-seeded
19-year-old who quickly took the opening set.
The Swiss, who was looking for his fifth title in what has been
an excellent season, leveled the match by taking the second
against the world number 27.
Things looked to be going Wawrinka's way when he led with a
break in the third but Zverev, who had lost his previous two ATP
finals, was not going to let history repeat itself a third time.
The big right hander produced some excellent tennis to storm
back and claim victory in just under two hours and 30 minutes.
