- German denies physically abusing ex-girlfriend in 2020
- Zverev recently voted on to the ATP player council
A few hours after his second-round match on Thursday at the Australian Open, Alexander Zverev conducted his mandatory press conference. The only English question posed to him was related not to his victory but a rather more pressing issue: whether he would be attending his trial in May for domestic abuse in person.
Zverev was visibly disgusted: “Wow,” he said. “That’s a question. I just played four hours, 40 minutes. That’s not the first question I really want to hear, to be honest. I’ve got no idea.”
