Alexander Zverev won his first-ever match at the Cincinnati Masters against Harris yesterday and the German could not hide a smile on his face.
It's a very good time in the life of Alexander Zverev who is enjoying every moment of it. The German arrived in Cincinnati fresh and he finally broke his Cincinnati curse. Asked how it felt after the win he said:
I'm happy with how I am, I'm happy where I'm at and I'm happy to get my first win in seven years here. It's obviously a great start to the week."
Zverev played a very great match patiently waiting for his chance to break the match open. The first set was a very tight affair as Harris was unbelievable when serving. Zverev patiently waited for his chance and took in the tiebreak. He was then able to finish off Harris after his level dropped off in the 2nd set.
Zverev was also asked how it was being introduced as an Olympic gold medalist and he said he felt goosebumps:
"It's great. When I came on court and they said Olympic gold medalist, it did give me goosebumps. It made me a little nervous at the beginning of the match, I have to say because it is a special feeling."

- I predicted whenthe list was finalised that Linda Noskova would win the WTA Finals and her matches against Gauff and Kostyuk prove that. She is the best (underrated) player in the world!Rapunzel11-11-2026
- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
