Former World Number Two, Alexander Zverev will face no further action regarding domestic abuse allegations from the ATP at least after they concluded there was 'insufficient evidence' for disciplinary action.
A storm has hung over Zverev since being accused in 2020 by Olya Sharypova of domestic abuse and an independent investigation began which took 15 months and saw 24 interviews conducted on both sides.
"Based on a lack of reliable evidence and eyewitness reports, in addition to conflicting statements by Sharypova, Zverev and other interviewees, the investigation was unable to substantiate the allegations of abuse," the ATP said.
"The seriousness and complexity of these allegations required an extremely thorough investigative process and considerable resources," said ATP Chief Executive Officer, Massimo Calvelli on the matter.
"It also required us to turn to specialist investigators, which was new ground for ATP."

BREAKING 🚨 ATP Tour has completed its investigation on Sascha Zverev. "A major independent investigation into Alexander Zverev has found insufficient evidence to substantiate published allegations of abuse. As a result, no disciplinary action will be taken by ATP".
