The German Alexander Zverev 27 years old and world No. 4, Roland Garros started by losing Rafael Nadal in three sets. In his fourth consecutive semi-final in Paris, he managed to jump into the final, which he will play on Sunday against Carlos Alcarazat 3 o’clock in the afternoon.
This is his second Grand Slam final, after losing at the 2020 US Open against the Austrian Dominic Thiem. A potential champion as he trains from his dominant junior days, as well as number one, although he has yet to achieve either of these goals.
His career was in jeopardy due to a serious injury to his right ankle that he sustained in a fall in his 2022 Roland Garros semifinal against Nadal. He broke his leg, but he’s back in the elite, ready to take advantage of a second start after that accident.
He arrived in Paris with the title Masters 1000 ATP Rome As a guarantee, he has twelve consecutive undefeated games on the ground. But he also appeared in the French capital with a complicated personal matter, a complaint of domestic violence by the mother of his daughter, with a court date just in time for the tournament.
Before his semi-final in Casper Ruud, Zverev’s lawyers reported that everything was settled after an agreement between the parties, which will include a financial compensation of 200,000 euros to his former partner, leaving the tennis player free of charge or accusation.
After reaching the final, in the official press conference, Zverev was asked about this resolution. “I’m happy it’s over after four years. Well, there’s nothing more I can say.”
At the insistence of one media outlet, Zverev emphasized his “innocence. I don’t know what translations you have, but they won’t drop the case if I’m not innocent. That’s what this resolution means.”
And he issued a blunt warning to everyone: “I never, ever want to hear it again, I don’t want to hear anyone ask about it again. And that goes for everyone,” he concluded his statement.
