zverev

I often find it useful to look from time to time at simple stats to confront the eye tests, memories and many biases of this forum - including mine. Needless to say that Stan and Domi have been pushing their percentages a lot lower in recent years, so I went a couple of years back in time...

Zverev is the first tennis player to openly expressed oppose the expansion of the Masters tennis tournament schedule to two weeks. Previously, only Indian Wells and Miami were played over two weeks, today the situation has turned around and only the Monte Carlo and Paris-Bercy Masters is played...

Z will be in the final this year. Whether he wins it or not, I do not know, but last year his form picked up in the hard court season culminating in the crushing win against Humbert in Paris.

Zverev could achieve something unthinkable in a few weeks time. If he reaches the Wimbledon final and loses, he'll have all 4 runner-up trophies in his cabinet, without ever winning a slam. Has any player (male or female) been anywhere close to this achievement in the history of tennis?? Mečíř...

Well, it didn’t take long. Alexander put himself in there again during an interview with The Tennis Channel in Miami. The topic turned to basketball and Sasha listed his Top 5 among the ATP. Here it is: Kyrgios Eubanks Kokkinakis Opelka Myself He then went on to say that Tiafoe can’t hoop...

One of the best rivalries of 2024, Zverev vs Alcaraz. Both finished in the top 3 and are Sinner's main competitors. With Alcaraz winning 2 grand slams and one masters this year and Zverev making the final of Roland Garros, winning two masters, and being more consistant overall by achieving the...

Here we go, a second master's 1000 final of the season for the German, while the first master's final of any kind for the Frenchman Humbert. H2H is 1 win apiece. Last meeting was at Paris Master's 2023 in the R32 where Zverev defeated Humbert by 64 67(3) 76(5). Who wins this time around? How...

Never saw anything like that in the last years. Both favourites are in the same quarter! Does anybody have an idea when that happened last time? Zverev is just short of 10% but is also a set down... 2024 US Open Men's (hElo) Draw Forecast Player R16 QF SF F W (1)Jannik Sinner...

mark my words , but I have a feeling Zverev will win the us open this year. Heres why: It is probably his favorite grand slam and where he has performed the best. he reached FO final and AO semifinal so next is a win , right? probably not but I think his serve will be very effective on these...

Zverev hype was sky high across social media back then after he beat Djokovic to win ATP Finals 2018. Although I'm not sure about this forum, on FB & Twitter people were calling him the future of tennis and whatnot. All that came crashing down in the years that followed; for the hype that was...

On serve it's probably between Zverev and Medvedev. On forehand it might be between Sinner Alcaraz Rublev and Tsitsipas. On backhand its between Sinner and Zverev. On speed it's hands down Carlos but on hard court with sliding it's probably between Carlos Nole and Medvedev. So who is the...

You read the title. Both have similar height at 198 cm. Vote and discuss.

So folks, here we go, this is by far the clash of the tournament until this stage. The winner could potentially face Alcaraz in the Quarters. A role reversal of sorts from 2 years ago when they played each other at USO, Sinner was the up & coming player while Zverev was the established top5...

Its the 12th meeting between these two, and their first in almost 2 years since Zverev's thrilling win over Djokovic at 2021 ATP finals Semi. Djokovic leads the overall h2h by 7-4. Here they meet again, coincidentally in yet another Semi final, its their 4th SF meeting in a row. Previously they...

Me over here knowing "now" means "now": Meanwhile Zverev trying to figure out how long "now" means:

Anyone know what racket Zverev is playing with at Wimbledon? All black. Stock racket or new mold perhaps? Doesn’t look like the teardrop shape of the Gravity he usually plays with.

It's a pity he wasn't able to compete in 2022 finals to defend the trophy as Sascha in his traditional November shape is extremely hard to beat. Therefore I don't consider this as a bold prediction: you can put his 3rd YEC title in the 2023 calendar. 2018 - 2021 - 2023
