Alexander Zverev, the German World No. 3, finished the 2021 tennis season on a high. The 24-year-old defeated Daniil Medvedev in straight sets last month to grab his second ATP Finals trophy in Turin.

There is no doubt that Zverev is hungry for more. His championship-winning game at the Nitto ATP Finals etched his name in elite tennis history. Zverev is the first player since Andre Agassi in 1990 to defeat the top two players in the world in the consecutive semi-final and final tie-ups.

Other players from across the sport are busy playing for their nations in the Davis Cup. However, Zverev decided to skip the tournament in order to relax and recover from a grueling yet successful season.
