Beyond the great sporting moment he is going through, Alexander Zverev is also experiencing a period of personal stability. In an interview with RTL+, the German dedicated some emotional words to his partner, Sophia Thomalla, revealed why he didn't want her to be present at the Roland Garros final, and confessed one of his big dreams for after his career.

"Sophia is an incredibly intelligent person. I love her very much, but I also have enormous respect for her. She knows perfectly when I need to be alone and when I need support. She is a huge help in my life," explained the recent Roland Garros champion. Zverev also wanted to highlight a gesture that defines his partner's involvement. "After the final, she traveled six hours by train just to be at the celebration and then left at seven in the morning because she had to work. I have a lot of respect for that gesture," he asserted.

Zverev says he wants to start a family with his partner

However, it was noted that Thomalla was not in the stands during the final. The German explained that the decision had little to do with tennis and a lot to do with his superstitions. "I didn't want her at the final because I like my team to be with me from the beginning of the tournament or not come at all. I am quite superstitious. My brother, my parents... they all have the same seats in my box, and I don't like to change anything during a tournament," he confessed.

The world number two also talked about his future away from the court and made it clear that starting a family is an important part of his plans. "Yes, I want a big family. You will have to ask Sophia when that moment will come," he joked before adding, "I love children, big families, and also dogs. When that time comes, one of us will have to slow down a bit on work pace, but I don't want to put any pressure on her. I am very proud of everything she is achieving in her career," he concluded.
