G.O.A.T.
1. He is actually meant to be an ATG, everything in his game (when it all clicks) indicates that.
2. The entire notion that he is some product of evolution and is some kind of second coming is based on false premises. There were already tall players who could do well from baseline. Del Potro a decade ago moved well, had a bigger and better FH, and as good a serve. Safin a little shorter, moved decent and was outstanding from the back of the court.
3.Zverev is a future ATG, but he really has only played few tournaments on that level. He is such a mental toast that in most of the matches he plays at 50% of his best. He just doesn't amount to "tough" Competition till now.
4. Zverev is a great potential, but I am baffled how ready some people are to put him on a pedestal greater than many, Murray for example was two times the player Zverev is and probably can be.
5. Zverev is bound to get some more wins against Big 3 now, and many are bound to insinuate that he would have ended Big 3 dominance in their heyday. But people need to remember that Big 3 destroyed great players' career, from Del Potro to Andy Murray to headcases like Nalbandian and Safin,heck even Thiem can say they took away the greatest wins of his career.
They would have squeezed dry Zverev even at his best.
6. All in all, Zverev is a top tier player, but people also overrate him. He is going to be an all surface threat soon. And he is definitely gonna win 3+ slams.
