Contents
Personal life
He is the son of former Russian tennis player Alexander Zverev Sr., who is also his coach. He now resides in Monte-Carlo, Monaco and represents Germany internationally. His brother, Alexander Zverev Jr., also plays on the tour.
Juniors
Zverev had a very successful junior career, attaining a No. 3 combined world ranking and reaching the semifinals of the US Open (losing to Andy Murray), the quarterfinals of Roland Garros (losing to Alex Kuznetsov) and the Australian Open (losing to Novak Djokovic) in 2004. In doubles he got to the final of the French Open in the same year.
As a junior he compiled a 123–50 win/loss record in singles (and 79–33 in doubles).
Professional career
2006
In October 2006, he made his first ATP-level quarter-final in Bangkok, Thailand, beating former No. 1 Juan Carlos Ferrero and former No. 5 Rainer Schüttler before losing to former No. 1 Marat Safin.
2007
He spent all of 2007 in the top 200. He made his 2nd quarter-final in July 2007, in Rhode Island. In August 2007, he won a Challenger title at Istanbul, and followed that up with a quarter-final run at the Bronx Challenger, which put him into the top-100 for the first time at # 99.
2008
In the 2008 Australian Open, Zverev nearly upset 11th seed Tommy Robredo in the first round. He took the first two sets but went down in 5. In June 2008, Zverev managed to secure his first ATP title by winning the Doubles at the Gerry Weber Open in Halle, Germany together with his partner Mikhail Youzhny.
At the 2008 Wimbledon Championships, Zverev surprisingly reached the third round after wins over Alexander Peya and Juan Carlos Ferrero, but was forced to retire in his third round match against Stanislas Wawrinka due to pain in his left thigh.
2009
In May, he reached the quarter-finals of the Rome Masters, losing to World No. 2 Roger Federer 7–6 6–2. He later helped Germany reach the final of the ARAG World Team Cup with team mates Nicolas Kiefer, Rainer Schüttler and Philipp Kohlschreiber. In the 2009 Wimbledon Championships, Zverev beat 25th seed Dmitry Tursunov in straight sets. He faced Philipp Petzschner in the 2nd round and lost in five sets. He was nominated by Davis Cup captain Patrik Kühnen for the quarterfinal against Spain in Marbella. He lost his doubles match with Nicolas Kiefer to Feliciano López and Fernando Verdasco in four sets.
2010
Zverev gave his comeback at the Brisbane International in January after a right wrist fracture. However, he lost to Australian wildcard Carsten Ball in straight sets. He made his next appearance at the Medibank International in Sydney where he lost in the first round of qualifying. At the 2010 Australian Open he lost to Łukasz Kubot from Poland in straight sets.
He regained his form at the European indoor tournaments. In Marseille he reached the semifinal, making a run which included a win over world No. 17 Tommy Robredo. He lost to eventual champion Michaël Llodra. His good form carried on – he went on to win after saving a match point in his first round match in Delray Beach against Michael Russell before falling to Mardy Fish in two sets. He lost his opening match in Indian Wells. At the 2010 Sony Ericsson Open in Miami Zverev was knocked out in the first round of Qualifying. He could not win a main draw match in a tournament for the next seven weeks. In preparation for Wimbledon he accepted a Wildcard for the 2010 Gerry Weber Open where he defetated Florent Serra and Jürgen Melzer before falling to Benjamin Becker 6–7, 0–6. He seemed to be in a good form – however, he was defeated by Andre Begemann in the first round of Qualifying in Wimbledon. Zverev then decided to enter more ATP Challenger Tour events. He reached the quarterfinal of Oberstaufen Challenger. Despite being granted a Wildcard in Stuttgart and Hamburg, he could not manage to win more than one match.
At the 2010 US Open he was knocked out in the first round of Qualifying again. He then returned to Europe playing a clay court ATP Challenger Tour Event in Genoa. He reached the quarterfinal where he was defeated by eventual champion Fabio Fognini. Two weeks later he managed to qualify for the Open de Moselle in Metz. Zverev reached his maiden ATP World Tour final after victories over Horacio Zeballos, Nicolas Mahut, Jarkko Nieminen and the retirement of Richard Gasquet in the semifinal. In the final Zverev played Gilles Simon who he lost to 6–3, 6–2. He qualified for the Main Draw of the ATP World Tour Masters 1000 tournament in Shanghai. In the Main Draw he lost to Juan Mónaco in round three after beating Sergiy Stakhovsky and Nikolay Davydenko in the first two rounds. At the end of October he again qualified for an ATP tournament – this time at Montpellier. He defeated Robin Haase in the first round before falling to Nikolay Davydenko in the second round. He finished the year at No. 82, a match record of 13–18 and a prize money of $318,805.
2011
Zverev had a slow start into 2011 losing four matches before capturing his first win of the season in Indian Wells defeating Matthew Ebden. Following a second round exit in Indian Wells he lost another four matches in a row before beating Dudi Sela in Round 1 of the Serbia Open 2011.
2016
In April 2016 Zverev won his first ATP Challenger singles title for over eight years in Sarasota, United States.
