With the prominent roles that Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz have earned, it seems that the rest of the players are at least one step behind in terms of level on the circuit. Alexander Zverev, the world number three, continues to assert his place in every tournament he attends, especially in the Grand Slams.

The German player, whose best mark at the British tournament is the fourth round, claimed his spot during the Media Day of Wimbledon 2025. Zverev did not hesitate to be firm in the face of all the criticisms from those demanding more results in circuits.

Zverev claims his place

"I had a fairly good preparation. I played a final, I played a semifinal, I worked in those tournaments as well. People forget that I'm still the number 3 in the world and that I'm number 3 in contention. I've had some losses here and there, which were normal, perhaps unexpected.

In general, I think I have regained form in recent weeks or months. I'm looking forward to Wimbledon, I think I can play well here," Zverev said in a press conference.

What factor causes him the most stress on the circuit?

"The continuity of not having breaks. It's an issue that's been around for a long time. I don't think we have an off-season. I don't think we have time to rest mentally, physically, and all that. Overall, I don't want to complain because I love being a tennis player. I love playing tennis. I love doing the things I do.

We are all complaining at a very, very high level and we are making a good amount of money and traveling the world. We are living in five-star hotels most of the time. We are in beautiful places. To be honest, my dream was always to be a tennis player. I feel like I'm living that dream, and I'm enjoying it."
