Alexander Zverev jokes with Carlos Alcaraz: “At least I had to win one.”
Alexander Zverev jokes about it with Carlos Alcaraz
Like Jannik Sinner, Alexander Zverev ends his group in first place with three out of three matches won and six out of six sets won. È it is only the third time since the Finals have existed that two players in the same year have come out of their group with such an immaculate result, and Sascha had a chance to joke about it at the net at the end of the match with Alcaraz: "I told Carlitos that he has beaten me too many times this year: at least one of them should have been won by me!", said Zverev.
"Alcaraz maybe mayò not play his best, although in my opinion he played great today. Then forò in the important moments he becomes a different person. You can put a coin on the line and he will hit ità for sure", further explained the German, who appeared però more solid today than his opponent in the crucial moments.
This was also confirmed by Zverev himself: "It was probably the best match of my week” who then revealed: "I already knew I was qualified after winning the first set, that’s why I cheered so much".
Finally, a thought about next year and in particular Roland Garros, which has always been a very special tournament for him: "It's always marked on my calendar, especially after my injury two years ago. I want a Slam title and the No. 1 in 2025, then if it doesn't come in Paris but in Australia I would now put my signature on it", Zverev concludes.
