Alexander Zverev is not giving up on his Grand Slam dreams. After suffering yet another gut-wrenching defeat in a Major final, the world No. 2 has set his sights on Roland Garros 2025 as his next big goal.
Zverev, who fell to Jannik Sinner in straight sets at the Australian Open final, will return to action this week at the Buenos Aires Open, making his debut at the ATP 250 event.
The 28-year-old German remains determined, believing that his time will come to lift a Major trophy and reach world No. 1.
Zverev’s Australian Open Pain: Third Major Final, Third Loss
Zverev came into the Australian Open final full of confidence, but Sinner was simply too strong. The Italian didn’t allow a single break chance, dominating on serve and taking a 6-3, 7-6, 6-3 victory in just under three hours.
💥 Key Stats from the AO Final:
✔️ 0 Break Points for Zverev
✔️ 45 Unforced Errors (compared to Sinner’s 23)
✔️ 10 Break Points Faced – Converted Twice by Sinner
Zverev battled hard in the second set, but a tiebreak loss crushed his momentum. The third set was more of the same, with Sinner securing an early break and never looking back.
🗣️ “I have to keep believing in myself. If I keep improving, I will have a chance to win Majors and become world No. 1.” – Alexander Zverev
Roland Garros: Zverev’s Next Major Goal
Zverev has now lost two of the last four Grand Slam finals. His 2024 Roland Garros heartbreak saw Carlos Alcaraz come back from two sets to one to deny the German his first Major title.
That five-set thriller ended in controversy, with a questionable overrule in the fourth set preventing Zverev from leveling the score at 2-2.
💥 Zverev’s Grand Slam Finals Record:
- 2020 US Open – Lost to Dominic Thiem (5 sets)
- 2024 Roland Garros – Lost to Carlos Alcaraz (5 sets)
- 2025 Australian Open – Lost to Jannik Sinner (3 sets)
Despite the setbacks, Zverev remains one of the top contenders for Roland Garros 2025, and his hunger for Grand Slam glory has never been stronger.
🗣️ “My next big goal is Roland Garros.”
What’s Next? Zverev’s Buenos Aires Debut
Zverev will make his ATP Buenos Aires debut this week, kicking off his clay-court preparations early. He faces Dusan Lajovic in the second round, hoping to gain momentum ahead of a critical season.
🎯 Can Zverev finally break through at Roland Garros? Or will his Grand Slam agony continue?
One thing is certain—he’s not giving up.
