Tennis: Injured Zverev misses number one on the walker


Medvedev withstands the pressure

Zverev missed number one on the rollator

Alexander Zverev (25) could have become the new number one in the ATP rankings in just over a week – although he is injured. But Daniil Medvedev (ATP 1) withstands the pressure of the point system.

It was almost two months ago that Alexander Zverev (25) injured his ankle badly against Rafael Nadal (36) in the semifinals of Roland Garros. Since then, the German has been missing from the tour and has not been able to collect any ATP points. And yet he could have climbed the tennis throne.

The results of the current world number one Daniil Medvedev (26) in the coming weeks will be decisive for this. If the Russian performs too badly at the current tournament in Los Cabos (Mexico) and at the subsequent ATP 1000 tournament in Montreal, Canada, Zverev would be at the top on August 15th.
