The tennis community is currently buzzing with the latest scores and intense matches of Alexander Zverev. However, apart from them, one particular headline has grabbed the attention of tennis fans. The German player who lost his Bavarian International quarterfinal match is celebrating his 27th birthday today. And his girlfriend, Sophia Thomalla, wished his “better half” a special birthday wish.

Thomalla, who is a renowned German model, took to her Instagram and posted a picture of them together. In the picture, both were smiling while Alexander Zverev remains half-immersed in water. Thomalla captioned it, “Wishing my better half the best birthday ever 😍🥰🥳🎂.”  Thomalla’s heartfelt wish is an example of their special bond that first received the spotlight in 2021.

And both of them don’t shy away from showing their love for each other on social media. Thomalla, who is frequently seen applauding his boyfriend during his matches, is a constant source of support for Alexander Zverev.

A documentary based on the athlete’s life also highlights their bond, where she mentions how they navigate their relationship through the complexities of their high professional demands. Even during Zverev’s ankle injury at the French Open 2022, Thomalla has been a constant support for him, saying that it has changed her perspective on tennis as a sport.

Although Alexander Zverev has often been under the scrutiny of the media for his previous high-profile relationship controversies, Thomalla has never backed away from appreciating their relationship in various interviews. However, like every relationship, their bond also went through a difficult phase while adjusting to the tight schedules of their professions. But Sophia Thomalla chooses to concentrate on the little moments of joy. After the Monte Carlo Masters of last year, Thomalla opened up about not having a “simple life” together.

Last year, during the Monte Carlo Masters, Sophia Thomalla caught everyone’s attention as she screamed in support of her boyfriend in a match. Addressing it later on, she revealed how she struggles to maintain her calm during the intense matches. Furthermore, she also added how both their lives are never consistent in their conventional sense. And that is why she wants to enjoy every little moment fully.

“That’s why it’s particularly important to enjoy even the simplest things together. Because we don’t have a simple life together,” she said. As Alexander Zverev continues to achieve milestones in his professional career, Thomalla’s consistent support off the court will also be remembered in the tennis world.
