Alexander Zverev is treated as if he were an elementary school child – Dominic Thiem
In an Interview with TT, Thiem mentions that he didn’t like the way people criticized Zverev. The World No.3 was asked about how he felt about it and this is what he said-
“He should have done it like me. He was also tested negatively, only his mistake was that he first wrote the statement and then had the bad luck of being filmed at the party. But I don’t like the way people criticize him. He is treated as if he were an elementary school child. But he’s a 23-year-old man. Sure, he made a mistake – but I don’t understand why everyone is getting involved.” Thiem said
