Zverev: 'I am world No. 4 and I can improve a lot. While some ones...'
Alexander Zverev feels confident about the success that he can get in the future. The 21-year-old German believes that the best is yet to come and in a press conference on Tuesday following his win over Aljaz Bedene at the Australian Open, Zverev said: "I'm No. 4 in the world, but there are a lot of things I can still improve. That's very motivating for me. Being No. 4 in the world, normally people reach their limits. No. 3 in the world and I still feel like I have so much room and I still have so many kinds of holes in my game where I can improve. This actually makes me quite happy."
The Hamburg native also commented on his partnership with coach Ivan Lendl: "It's been good", Zverev admitted. "I mean, obviously Ivan is giving a lot of good advice. It's not only this Grand Slam but we worked a lot last year as well after the US Open. Things don't just come together after you start working with someone one week or two weeks. It really takes time. I hope now it's going to be the period where it really starts showing. I think in London I already showed improvements. I really hope that here I'm going to continue to kind of show the things that we have been working on."
On his next opponent Jeremy Chardy, Zverev added: "I'm pretty good friends with. We spent a lot of time at the Laver Cup together. We spent a lot of time outside the court, as well. It's going to be an interesting one. I don't know what the score is now, but I hope Jeremy can kind of pull it off and it's going to be an interesting match for us."
