Becker Urges Zverev to Consider New Coach After Turin Exit

He says the family-run setup keeps outside trainers away.

Overview

  • Speaking on Sky on Saturday, Boris Becker said the "question of a new coach" now arises for Alexander Zverev.
  • Becker argued that no outside coach is willing to work within a team dominated by Zverev’s father, brother and mother.
  • He assessed Zverev’s decisive loss to Félix Auger-Aliassime as a mental block marked by visible tension under pressure.
  • Zverev responded with irritation at his press conference, saying he had no desire to hear further comments from Becker.
  • No coaching change has been announced, with Zverev’s father remaining head coach following short stints with several external trainers and a brief summer collaboration with Toni Nadal.
