The Italian rallied from 3-5 in the second set and saved four match points in the second set tie-break on his way to a 1-6 7-6 (12-10) 6-0 victory.
After two hours, 25 minutes, 18th-ranked Darderi was able to celebrate becoming the first player other than Jannik Sinner to beat Zverev at a Masters tournament since Shanghai last October.
