Alexander Zverev recently won the Bett1Hulks Indoors title at the ATP Cologne Open 2020. In the finals, he defeated Felix Auger Aliassime 6-3, 6-3 to add the 12th title to his trophy collection. The World No. 7 Zverev recently said in an interview that he loved to play in Germany, his homeland. The stadiums at Cologne impressed him, and he was sure that the ATP finals and the Laver Cup would take place there soon.
“When I saw the stadium here in Cologne, my first thought was why the ATP Finals were awarded to Turin and not take place here. My second thought was, when are we going to bring the Laver Cup here?” said Zverev.
The ATP Finals 2020 will take place in London, United Kingdom. The official venue is the O2 arena. They will kick-off from November 15 and go on till November 22, 2020. In 2021, they will take place in Turin, Italy. The Laver Cup, on the other hand, will not take place this year due to the coronavirus pandemic. It will take place in Boston, the United States, from September 24 to 26 in 2021. Both tournaments are played on indoor hard courts.
