But then Alexander Zverev’s life went to pieces…The tennis player Alexander Zverev has blue eyes and shaggy blond hair and is 6ft 7in tall. Zverev actually has a modelling contract with Zegna, the Italian fashion brand, partly because he is a well-known tennis player, but also because he looks less like a tennis player and more like a luxury clothes horse. Pro tennis players often arrive at tournaments with an almighty entourage. And then in Marrakech (second round), Monte Carlo (second round), Barcelona (first round), Rome (first round) and Stuttgart (first round). You can’t be your own manager and your own assistant and still be a top-10 professional tennis player.
