Alexander Zverev He is looking for his second Masters 1000 of the year after winning the one in Rome in the month of May, in very different conditions than those found in the ATP Rolex ParĂs Masters. In this edition he arrives with a bang by beating Tallon Griekspoor, Arthur Fils and Stefanos Tsitsipas, leaving only one set against the Frenchman, who with a totally favorable atmosphere managed to break the German’s powerful serve on one occasion, and none of the others two players have achieved it this week.
The tennis year of Alexander Zverev is being good considering what happened during last 2023, a course marked by his recovery from the serious ankle injury he suffered in 2022. An injury that caused him to return at a slow speed, but which he overcame and now returns to look like that Zverev who opted for everything in 2021, although he still lacks the long-awaited Grand Slam in his showcase. The German held a press conference at the ATP Rolex ParĂs Masters after beating one of his biggest rivals in the quarterfinals, Tsitsipas, to assess his objectives for the following season and take stock of this one.
– Your improvement during the year
Tsitsipas declared after the match that Zverev was the player he had faced this year who had improved the most in his game since last year: “It’s a great compliment from you. I’m trying, I’m working on things, trying different things. Tennis doesn’t stop. We have to continue finding ways to improve because of how Jannik and Carlos are playing right now. “Tennis is becoming so fast and aggressive that you need to find ways to improve your game.”
– 84 games played so far in 2024
If you reach the final of the ATP Rolex ParĂs Masters and of the ATP FinalsAlexander Zverev will have played throughout the year 91 partiesa very high figure, since for example Carlos Alcaraz does not reach 60 officers: “The first six months of the year were very good for me, I played many matches and went far in many tournaments. The last few months have been more difficult, I have withdrawn from some events due to health problems.”
“I feel good after having played so many games, motivated to find my game again and also to improve. I play and train so much because I want to improve and achieve the great goals that I still have.“.
– About whether he sees himself as the current number 3 and objectives for the next season
“Clearly, Carlos and Jannik are the best in the world right nowyou just need to see the Grand Slams that have been won during the year. At the end of 2021 I felt like one of the best and that I was sharing the tournaments with Novak and Daniil. “I was going in the direction of becoming the best and I got injured, at Roland Garros I felt like it was my chance to win a Grand Slam, but what happened happened.”
“Everything got out of my hands and between 2022 and 2023 I was not a candidate for anything, I just tried my best and worked hard to win a great title that was still far away. I feel that this season I have been a candidate, I hope that next year it will be a little better and I can continue playing a great role. That’s still my goal“.
