Alexander Zverev: German tennis professional shoots against ATP colleagues before the French Open

The prize money is “the only thing they think about,” said the man from Hamburg, who did not mention any names in his remarks. He clearly separated himself from it. “I am one of the few who really love this sport. Sporting fame is more important to me than economic success,” emphasized Zverev.

In the interview, last year’s US Open finalist went even further by attributing insincerity to his opponent. “Ninety percent of the players do not say at the media conferences what they really think,” said the world number sixth.

That is why he would rather receive criticism for being honest with himself than for hiding “behind hackneyed and hypocritical phrases”.
