Sophia Thomalla has admitted that she and her partner German tennis star Alexander Zverev had a turbulent year in the relationship. The 34-year-old was quoted in a report recently where she opened up about the details of her relationship with the world number seven.
"It was a turbulent year,” she said. “But that doesn't have to be negative, sometimes you have to go a certain extra mile for your career. We don't lead a normal life. We get up very early and travel a lot. You have no basis to hold on to.”

Zverev had a decent year at the highest level where he ended up winning two ATP titles. The first of those wins came while playing in his home country where he defeated Serbia’s Laslo Djere in the final with a score of 7-5, 6-3.
His second ATP title was a victory in Chengdu in September where he got the better of world number 39 Russia’s Roman Safiullin with a score of 6-7, 7-6, 6-3.
Zverev also had a more than decent time while playing in the Grand Slams in 2023. In the French Open, the Hamburg-born was knocked out of the competition after losing the semifinal to Norways’ Casper Ruud in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 6-4, 6-0.
In the US Open, Zverev managed to qualify for the quarterfinal where he lost to Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz with a score of 6-3, 6-2, 6-4.
