Zverev hopes he can be more than just ‘the third guy’ in tennis after run to Wimbledon final
LONDON: Alexander Zverev is used to being “the third guy” in tennis.
After following up his French Open title with a run to his first Wimbledon final, he’s hoping to be more than that in the future.
Despite losing to Jannik Sinner on Center Court on Sunday, the 29-year-old Zverev thinks he is closer than ever to challenging the top-ranked Italian and his main rival Carlos Alcaraz and giving tennis a Big Three again.
Sinner and Alcaraz had won the last nine Grand Slam tournaments between them before Zverev won his first major at Roland Garros this year.
