We always have the smiling image of the winning players with the trophy, but rarely do we see the human reaction of the runner-up. In this case, Alexander Zverev had no problem showing his disappointment after falling in the final of the 2025 ATP Vienna against Jannik Sinner in a match where he couldn't avoid the comeback.
It was the breakthrough he needed, but it will have to wait. Despite the defeat, Alexander Zverev leaves the 2025 ATP Vienna with great sensations, even though he couldn't beat a Jannik Sinner who was cramped in the final. These were the words of the German tennis player in the press conference.

"Some have forgotten that, when I am fit and in shape, I can still play tennis. It was a great match, very close and of high level on both sides. I reviewed the stats, perhaps one of the best of the year. In the end, maybe I was a bit unlucky, it could have gone either way. He won today, with an impressive serve. Looking at the last few months and how I played this week, it's still a step forward," Zverev explained as reported by Ubitennis.
Alexander Zverev, positive despite the defeat against Jannik Sinner
"We haven't faced each other often in the last two years, only once in Cincinnati last year and in Australia this year, nothing more. Of course, I would have liked to win, but we have to stay clear-minded, look ahead, and say that compared to how I felt at the beginning of the week, this performance is still going in the right direction."
Zverev analyzes his rivalry with Sinner
"We are two players who, when in good form, try to play very fast. We are not the ones who play a thousand variations, but with baseline shots and speed, we can create very spectacular matches. He manages to show this level more often throughout the year, having reached four Grand Slam finals, but I think I played well today. As I said, it could have gone either way," said the German in the press conference, confessing that his goal now is to stay healthy and confirming that he will travel to Paris to compete in the 2025 ATP Rolex Paris Masters if all goes well.
