Zverev's Horrible Statistic Against Higher-Ranked Players
The tough defeat of Alexander Zverev against Sinner in the semifinals of the Masters 1000 in Monte Carlo once again highlighted that the German is still light years away from the level of the two great dominators of the circuit, Italy and Carlos Alcaraz. So much so that Zverev has lost the last 13 matches in which he has faced players with a higher ranking than him. All of them against Sinner and Alcaraz, except one against Daniil Medvedev. The German has accumulated eight consecutive losses against the Italian and four against Carlitos. A statistic that greatly complicates his chances of winning major titles.
