Alexander Zverev continues to receive criticism after losing the 2026 Wimbledon final against Jannik Sinner. Despite playing one of his best matches of the season, Rennae Stubbs (Serena Williams' coach) believes that the German tennis player continues to falter in crucial moments, and that is what sets him apart from the world number 1.

"Do you remember when he turned around and shouted 'come on' to his team? It was exaggerated. I told him, 'Hey, you have two sets left to win against the best player in the world.' I felt like he thought he was going to win the tournament after taking the first set. As soon as he missed that forehand in the second set, it was over. It's in those moments when the great players do not make serious mistakes. That was when he made his first serious mistake in a very important point, and I thought it was over," she stated on 'The Rennae Stubbs Tennis Podcast.' 

The forehand stroke, the key for Zverev to have more success

One of the strokes in which Zverev showed the most improvement was his forehand, which at other times in his career was a hindrance against the best tennis players in the world. However, Serena Williams' coach believes it remains his weak point in crucial points. "This won't change until he's able to hit with that forehand when it really matters," Rennae concluded, who like other experts still sees Zverev as several steps behind Alcaraz and Sinner.

Surprising the amount of criticism Zverev is facing when he comes from winning his first Grand Slam at Roland Garros and has reached his first Wimbledon final after failing to go beyond the round of 16 in his entire career. Surely the German tennis player will turn a deaf ear and keep working, as he himself has admitted that he sees himself closer to the Italian and the Spanish player with each passing day.
