Alexander
Zverev has surpassed Dominic Thiem in the number of victories on the tour and
could catch up to Milos Raonic and Grigor Dimitrov.
The German
player has faced challenges since his injury in the semifinals of the 2022
French Open. Zverev underwent surgery and missed the remainder of the season.
He returned in early 2023, achieving a mix of good results and some
disappointments. However, he has once again reached the semifinals of Roland
Garros and is rediscovering his best form.
A Reddit
user compiled a count of victories among active players on the tour. At 26
years old, Zverev holds a privileged position that will likely leave several
players behind. Key contenders to the Big-3 in recent years, including Stefanos
Tsitsipas, Daniil Medvedev, and Dominic Thiem, are trailing behind Zverev.
Despite their continued activity, it may be difficult for them to surpass
Zverev due to age.
With his
victory over Etcheverry, the former world No. 2 could surpass Milos Raonic in
the coming weeks and even Dimitrov by the end of the year, depending on his
results. Here is the list of victories.+
