The last weeks of Alexander Zverev are undoubtedly among the best of his entire career. Not only did he win his first Grand Slam at Roland Garros, but he will also compete for his second major after reaching the Wimbledon final by defeating the tournament's surprise: Arthur Fery (7-6(0), 6-2, 6-4).

The German possibly played his best match on grass, but he won't have much time for celebrations since next Sunday he will have to fight for the title against Jannik Sinner or Novak Djokovic. However, far from worrying, the new world number two takes it with humor. This is evident from his post-match statements.

Alexander Zverev jokingly responded to the question about his possible opponent in his first Wimbledon final in 2026 - Novak Djokovic or Jannik Sinner

"I hope I can play against a junior. That would be great. Whether it's the defending champion or someone who has won here 48 times like Novak Djokovic, it's not going to be easy no matter who it is. But I have to trust myself and believe I can win. That's what I'm going to do," the German said, laughing.

Furthermore, he took the opportunity to praise Fery's performance at Wimbledon and expressed confidence in seeing him on the circuit for many years: "I have to give credit to Arthur. An incredible player. I think he will become a veteran on our tour because I believe he will play on this circuit for 15 years or more. He will achieve great results. I think this was just the beginning of his career. I truly believe he will do amazing things in this sport."

He also didn't miss the chance to thank the audience for their conduct throughout the match: "I know that 99.9% of this stadium wanted Arthur to win. But still, it was such an incredible atmosphere and such a fair crowd as well. I enjoyed every second of it. For me, I think many stadiums in the world can learn from this audience. To me, it's one of the best crowds to play tennis in front of," said an ecstatic Alexander Zverev following his success in Paris.
