The new 2025 tennis season has started to heat up and the first Grand Slam of the course is just around the corner, because on January 12 the Australian Open will start with the current world number one, Jannik Sinnerdefending the crown at Melbourne Park.
After finishing a season in which he finished as the second best tennis player in the ATP rankings, Alexander Zverev was checked in Tennis Magazine who will be, in his opinion, the rivals to beat in the next campaign, placing special emphasis on two names: Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz.
In this interview, the German did not hesitate to praise both tennis players. Regarding the Murcian, Zverev emphasized the great personal relationship that unites them beyond the court.
“Carlos is someone I get along with very well. We’ve also had special moments together, playing important games against each other and spending some time together off the court. A bond has been formed. Whenever “We face each other. different and we played, there was a good show, it was fun to be with him on the court”said the German about Alcaraz, who completed the third step of the podium in the ATP rankings.
However, regarding the debate about who is the best tennis player in the world today, Zverev is clear: finished as number one in the ATP rankings in 2024.
“In terms of tennis, he really deserves to be number 1 in the world. He has won two Grand Slam titles, three Masters and ATP Finals. He is the best player in the world and the one who has won the most titles”Zverev insisted on Jannik Sinner, erasing any doubt about who deserves that label now weeks before the start of the Grand Slam season.
