It's Time We Talk About Alexander Zverev...

People question Alexander Zverev's mental toughness and his record against top players at Slams isn't great, but he's come back strong from injury and made big improvements - is this when he conquers his demons and wins a Slam?

No matter what the context...
Alexander Zverev always finds a way to; "Put myself in there."

[labynoe]

The first ex-GF (Olga Sharypova) who accused Zverev of domestic violence gave a detailed account that was corroborated by several witnesses AND she never sought to get any money nor did she want Zverev prosecuted. She just wanted her story to be told about how he treated her and the negative effects it had on her life. So when a second ex-GF tells the same story, it certainly isn't a good look for Zverev, especially when you see how menacing he has acted to officials on the tennis court. It will look even worse if a 3rd woman comes forward claiming domestic abuse. At a minimum, Zverev has a serious anger management problem which he should address and overcome.

Tsitispas and Zverev have the same Achilles heel. Both are shackled to their fathers, unable to divorce themselves.
The motif of killing one’s father is not merely Oedipal but a deep part of individuation.

[MMerlyn]

Off-court controversies aside, I think him and Tsitsipas need real coaches, family is not always a good thing in tennis, they sometimes can actually be detrimental. Other than that, I do have a lot of sympathy for his generation. All talented players but who had the misfortune to be contemporaries with the best players in history, Djokovic, Nadal, Federer and Murray. And after all that, when those guys are either retiring or dropping their level, they get the likes of Alcaraz and Sinner. I am a Medvedev fan but I've always wanted to see the 3 of them and Rublev (I know, I know, cue the QF curse comments incoming) win many Slams but at this stage it doesn't look good for them. Zverev and Medvedev need to get bolder, Tsitsipas doesn't seem like he cares much and Rublev needs some mental help.

" I got a B in high school physics and I make myself look like a scientist." The perfect words.🤣🤣

Federer and Roddick have been won Masters 1000 titles without being broken. Federer in Cincinatti 2015 I believe is the most recent. It's definitely happened before

[Ijetz]

The biggest issue for me throughout the whole ordeal is that Zverev has not once condemned DV in any way. He could certainly have maintained his claim of innocence while also denouncing abuse and treating it as a serious issue.

Great vid. I would really like to see a deep analysis on Medvedev, how he was on the high in 2023 vs trophy-less 2024 (so far). I find him fascinating, and yet very human

[jonathanrandall]

His attitude and demeanor has changed for the better since his ankle injury.

First video of yours I’ve seen, and it is very good. Just subscribed. As a player, I think very highly of Sasha. I think he’s one of the best players in the world and has the potential to get to #1 every now and then if he starts winning slams, which in my view, if he can get over all of the times he’s come so close, but lose, he inevitably will eventually. As a human being, I disliked him long before I knew about the spousal/girlfriend abuse accusations because I saw him lose it to such an extent at umpires and others at these events. I have a feeling that the diabetes contributes to this too, because there’s no question it can impact your mood if your blood sugar is too high or too low. But at the end of the day, that still doesn’t excuse it. So, overall, regardless of what happened with the abuse case, I don’t like him much. But I do respect his game.

[EliEngemann]

It’s fun to watch him play and he hits missiles on his serves and stokes, watching him in Miami vs dimitrov but it was mental, third favorite to watch, behind dimitrov and sinner.

[NealDurando]

Totally needs to grow beyond his father. Watching him sometimes feels like watching a junior match. The constant appeals to his stand. He's not alone, of course. A trend I wish would end.

[aaronxiong]

sascha has a lot more holes in his game than people think he does lol

[pavementpounder]

He seemingly wasnt far off in the RG final, but Alcaraz is just more clutch and a better finisher. I also thought his volleys were often weak and Carlos punished him. The thing with players like Carlos, Rafa, Nole etc is they find an extra gear to win. I feel Zverev, and indeed Sinner atm, kind of lack that atm.

[adrianam]

I am fascinated with this channel, it is a real analysis of the player, describing in a very constructive way.
Thank you very much Noha, also thank you to the subscribers for the comments, I learn a lot participating in this chat🎾

Ultimately, anyone in his position will be subject to scrutiny, as are the remainder of the top players in both tours. Everyone is different, and I remember something that Andy Roddick said in an interview: imagine having a bad day at work, and cameras being there. His behaviour on court is at times indefensible, but not unheard of and isn’t anything we haven’t seen with other players, and can be interpreted as him showing his passion. I respect him as a consistently high level tennis player, and for what he has to deal with on a medical level. However, I feel uncomfortable supporting him because of these allegations. That isn’t me disbelieving the justice system, just from a morality standpoint for me that I can’t cheer for anyone with even a faint question mark around something like domestic violence, especially when it’s come from two women separately. I respect him for what he’s done on the court, but at a distance.

[HowlingFantods]

He is going to improve his game to become more competitive at the top. His day is coming.

[unishea]

He is such a problematic individual to be honest not his fan.
But yeah I don’t think he can now go over the mental block of losing two grand slams final in the way he did.

[CacheTaFace]

As a player, he's great, but chokes in slams. As a person, you gotta admire his doggedness (pro athlete with diabetes, coming back from career threatening injuries, etc.), but he definitely has demons.
