* NEWS FROM : https://tinyurl.com/ydatpmx8 Alexander Zverev: I will try to compete for Grand Slams next year SEPTEMBER 3, 2018 by LUIGI GATTO Alexander Zverev lost to Philipp Kohlschreiber in four sets, 6-7, 6-4, 6-1, 6-3, in the third round of the US Open on Saturday. Analyzing how the match went, Zverev said: 'The second set was pretty even. He played a great game at 5-4 to break me. The third set, I mean, he played really well. I didn't play my best throughout the whole match, I thought. But credits to him, he played very smart, a good match I thought.' When asked if there was any reason why he faced such kind of losses against players whom he beats on the ATP Tour, Zverev replied, 'At tour events, I lose, as well. There's just more tour events. You probably recognize it less. I lost to Robin Haase last week in Cincinnati. I lost to Tsitsipas in Toronto. Those are not that great losses for me either. There's a lot of focus on the Grand Slams. I've obviously done well in Paris, but not at the other Grand Slams this year maybe for different reasons. Australia, I played against Chung, who played very well. Wimbledon I was still recovering from an injury. Here I played a good opponent. Just couldn't find my best game today.' About his partnership with Ivan Lendl, Zverev added, 'It's a process of developing. I took him to do well at slams. But this is a process. You can't expect to kind of immediately see the results. I think the results will come hopefully next year. He's very straightforward. He said that it's a process of getting there. It's a process of playing well at slams. He told me before the tournament started that, "Hopefully, you'll do very well at the US Open, but we're more looking towards next year. We're more looking towards being at latter stages, competing for slams next year." I understand it. I still want to win, obviously. I want to win today, then playing Nishikori next, who I just played in Washington. I feel like it would have been a pretty okay matchup for me, as well. I wanted to go far. But wishes don't always come true. -------------- * 其实就是期许自己明年和未来的大满贯成绩都能持续进步。 * 分享一下ＢＩＧ４拿下首座大满贯的年纪： ╭────────┬───────────┬───╮ │ＢＩＧ４ │ GRAND SLAMS │ AGE │ ├────────┼───────────┼───┤ │ Roger Federer │ 2003 Wimbledon │ 22 │ ├────────┼───────────┼───┤ │ Rafael Nadal │ 2005 French Open │ 19 │ ├────────┼───────────┼───┤ │ Novak Djokovic │ 2008 Australian Open │ 21 │ ├────────┼───────────┼───┤ │ Andy Murray │ 2012 US Open │ 25 │ ╰────────┴───────────┴───╯ * Sascha 现在 21岁，搞不好明年就是转折点也不一定了？XDDDD 加油啦～～ --
