Misha Zverev has a very solid tennis career behind himself and the German is today mostly known as the older brother of Alexander Zverev who has blossomed in one of the better players on Tour. The older brother was in Turin to witness his younger brother lifting the ATP Finals trophy for the 2nd time and on that triumph he said:
"Compared to his last ATP Finals victory in 2018, he plays better, more mature, more intelligent, and more complete in the overall package. He is the best Zverev there has been so far, but he can get even better."
Misha further commented:
”He has improved his volleys a lot, he also reads the game better, he knows when to attack or retreat. The selection of his strokes has also got better and he's moving well, very intelligently, at the moment. Against Medvedev, he found an excellent balance and correctly assessed when he needed to move forward and play calmly. There were a lot of tempo changes in the game, but it was all controlled."
Asked about the state of current tennis Zverev explained that in his mind four players are a level above the rest saying:
"From my point of view, the new top four are Djokovic, Medvedev, Sascha, and Tsitsipas. That's just my feeling; that can, of course, still change.
