In the last few hours, everyone is talking about the withdrawals of Novak Djokovic and Jannik Sinner from the Masters 1000 in Canada, the toughness of the schedule, and the consequences this could have in the future. However, on days like today, it is also worth praising the figure of Alexander Zverev, who is the most consistent player on the circuit and remains unaffected by controversies of this nature.

While other superstars like Sinner, Djokovic, or Carlos Alcaraz carefully choose their schedule, the German player does not shy away from anything, playing as many tournaments as possible and proving he is made of a different mold. Despite being diabetic and all that entails, he is rarely seen retiring. In fact, he has only done so once at the age of 16 in one of his early professional matches against his brother Misha and at Roland Garros 2022 against Nadal when he injured his ankle.

'Sascha' is a perfect machine that is teaching the world a lesson amidst so many complaints about the long duration of tournaments and the schedule, as evidenced by 2026. In Grand Slams, Zverev has won Roland Garros, reached the final at Wimbledon, and the semifinals at the Australian Open. Additionally, in Masters 1000 events, he has reached one final, three semifinals, and some round of 16, yet he has never complained about his physical condition. He hinted a couple of times that he arrived at certain tournaments in less than optimal shape but never used it as an excuse.

Zverev always shows up when others falter

And that's not all, as he has also competed in the United Cup, Acapulco, Munich, and Halle, with intentions to play the remaining four Masters 1000 events, the US Open, and some other lower-impact ATP tournaments. This is not a criticism of Sinner or Djokovic for skipping the Masters 1000 in Canada but a way to show that it is possible to play everything if your body can handle it and your preparation is adequate.

Perhaps Djokovic prefers to avoid this physical burden due to age, and as for Sinner, we have seen the consequences of accumulated weeks without rest. However, this does not seem to affect Zverev at all, and in the season where he secured his first Grand Slam and made a significant qualitative leap, he is proving that it doesn't matter how far he reaches in a tournament because he will always have enough strength to aim for more in the next one.

Zverev may be criticized for many things, such as his desire to match Alcaraz and Djokovic or some controversial comments, but never for not being consistent enough in pursuing his dream of becoming the world number one. Furthermore, when other names falter, he is usually the one to step up, as seen in Paris. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect him to rise to the occasion in Canada to add another Masters 1000 title to his accolades.
