In these times of social distancing, players are staying at home and getting bored without any tennis action. However, the preponderance of the tennis fraternity has shifted its focus on social media during the coronavirus pandemic. Many players including the World No.7 Alexander Zverev are trying to keep themselves and their fans entertained through social media.

The essence of the tennis tour is that it never stops and hence the players get no space of free time during the season. However, the unscheduled break due to the public crisis is offering these players to spend some quality time with their family and engage with their fans. Subsequently, Zverev has found a unique way to engage with his followers on Instagram.
