Zverev was a junior world No. 1 and won a junior Grand Slam singles championship at the Australian Open in 2014.

He also made an early professional tour breakthrough, becoming one of the youngest Challenger title winners in history at the age of 17. Zverev won two ATP titles as a youngster and defeated then-world No. 3 Roger Federer on grass.

Who is Alexander Zverev father Alexander Zverev Sr.?

His father, Alexander Zverev Sr once rose to No. 175 in the international rankings to become the top-ranked men’s player in the country, while his mother rose to No. 4 in the women’s rankings.

They both relocated from Sochi to Moscow to practice at the military-run CSKA Moscow tennis club. The Soviet authorities frequently prohibited their players from competing outside of the nation, limiting how far either of Sascha’s parents might reach in the global rankings.

At the age of 20, Zverev became the youngest player in the top 20 since Novak Djokovic. Zverev has been important in Team Europe’s early success in the Laver Cup, winning the clinching matches in 2018 and 2019.
