Zverev: I'm With Lendl To Win The Biggest Tournaments 2018.08.25 ATP Staff 来源：https://tinyurl.com/y9ltn8ju German discusses bringing Lendl onto his team After losing a five-setter against Ernests Gulbis at Wimbledon, Alexander Zverev began to think it was the perfect time to try something new. At the time, he was No. 3 in the ATP Rankings and had recently earned his third ATP World Tour Masters 1000 title in Madrid. But the 21-year-old wanted more, and he took a step toward achieving more by adding both a proven coach and player to his team ahead of the US Open: former World No. 1 Ivan Lendl. “The reason I'm with him is to compete and win the biggest tournaments in the world,” Zverev said. “That's the only reason he would join, as well. It's great having him here. Hopefully it will show in the results.” Jez Green, Zverev's fitness coach, worked with former World No. 1 Andy Murray during one of Lendl's stints with Scot's team. So between Lendl's previous coaching success and his experience with members of the German's team, it was a perfect fit. “He's a smart man, a great guy. Done it as a player, done it as a coach, so he knows what it takes,” Zverev said. “He knows how to do it. He knows how to make the best players even better. This is why I took him.” It's not that Zverev has been unsuccessful before hiring Lendl. In fact, the opposite is true. The Monte-Carlo-resident leads the ATP World Tour in 2018 with 43 match wins. In second is World No. 1 Rafael Nadal, who owns 40. But to Zverev, Lendl could add that little bit more to his corner to help him continue his ascent. “Practices have probably gone up a little bit in intensity. They have gone up a little bit in value probably, as well. Just having him around on the court brings the value,” Zverev said. “So far the relationship is going well. So far everything is going as it should. Hopefully it will continue so.” Zverev will hope his early work with Lendl could pay immediate dividends in Flushing Meadows. One year ago, he was arguably one of the hottest players on tour, fresh off triumphs in Washington, D.C. and Montreal. But his tournament came to a screeching halt in the second round against Borna Coric, his third exit by the second round in three New York-appearances. “Last year I was a little burnt out,” Zverev said. “Last year I played a lot, I won a lot. Mentally it was tough for me because everybody saw me for the first time as a favorite. That was new for me, as well. Expectations got a head of me a little bit. “I'm trying to play my best tennis here in New York, which I've never really done before. I've never really played the best tennis here. I'm trying to change that. I'm trying to change it this year. Hopefully it will work out that way.” And maybe with Lendl in his corner, Zverev could find his top level at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, where he begins his campaign against Peter Polansky. For now, there's no timeframe on this new player-coach relationship. “As long as it works,” Zverev said. “If I win the US Open here, it's going to be probably a little while.” ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 说的东西差不多 不过毕竟是ATP官网新闻 还是分享一下 其实是我也有些紧张起来 不知道为什麽XD 所以来看一下Sascha压压惊 去年美网前是不错的战绩(连拿华盛顿盃跟蒙特娄大师)却在美网第二轮输给Coric （迷之声：我超级超级超级喜欢去年美网的战袍的　超级好看 可恶　才穿两场） 在大满贯的表现至今差强人意，是时候做出一些改变 为了赢下大满贯这个目标，小子选择了Lendl 另外也承认去年赢下一些比赛後，（後段）身体有点累累的 粉丝变多这件事让他心理状态有些迷失，或许无形中给自己过多不必要的期望及压力 希望这个合作能带来新的契机，能让他首度在美网拿出最佳表现、进而进而进而 打出他最好的网球 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 反正看了小子的宣言，就是超热血的 Anyway这个合作目前看到的各种分析多认为，这个选择是往正确的方向前进 拭目以待搂 加油，Sascha!!! --
