Tennis fans did little to hide their frustration with the French Tennis Federation (FFT) after Alexander Zverev received an "embarrassing" trophy following his heroics at Roland Garros.
On June 7, Zverev ended his agonizing wait for a Grand Slam title upon defeating Flavio Cobolli 6-1, 4-6, 6-4, 6-7, 6-1 in the French Open Final. The 29-year-old previously secured runner-up finishes at the 2020 U.S. Open, 2024 French Open, and 2025 Australian Open before emerging victorious on the Philippe-Chatrier court.
Upon returning to Germany this weekend, Zverev was warmly welcomed by the crowd that gathered at the Center Court of the Terra Wortmann Open. As patrons rained down cheers, he proudly held up a comically small Coupe des Mousquetaires trophy.
Alexander Zverev is making his return to action at the Halle Open, marking his first appearance since Roland Garros.
The German secured his maiden Grand Slam title in Paris, taking down Flavio Cobolli in the final to complete a remarkable tournament run.
Since then, Zverev hasn’t featured in any events. He pulled out of this week’s Stuttgart Open as he continues to manage his schedule carefully.
Zverev’s opponent for that return has now been revealed, with the world No 4 set to take on qualifier Oscar Otte. The match will be played on Tuesday, June 18th.
Zverev’s first match back is against world number 65 Vit Kopriva, marking the German’s debut on grass for the 2026 season.

Germany’s perennial tennis bridesmaid Alexander Zverev will get another shot at a maiden grand slam title in this year’s Roland-Garros final.
The world No.3 – the only top-five player in the men’s or women’s draw to reach the semi-finals – progressed to his fourth major final, and second in Paris, with a 7-5, 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 victory over Czechia’s marathon man Jakub Mensik across three-plus hours.
Zverev will face 10th seed Flavio Cobolli in the final after fellow Italian Matteo Arnaldi withdrew before their semi-final with a viral illness. It will be Cobolli’s first grand slam final.
Alexander Zverev moved to the verge of a long-awaited first Grand Slam title as the second seed saw off Jakub Mensik in four sets on Friday to set up a French Open final against Flavio Cobolli.
The German will face 10th-seed Cobolli on Sunday after securing a 7-5, 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 victory over Mensik.
Cobolli did not even have to play his first Grand Slam semi-final, as his last-four opponent and fellow Italian Matteo Arnaldi withdrew from the tournament shortly before the match due to illness.

Alexander Zverev has faced the best and asserts Rome is the absolute worst.
A disconsolate Zverev failed to convert four match points in the tiebreaker suffering a brutal 6-1, 6-7(10), 0-6 loss to Italian Luciano Darderi in a Rome shocker on BNP Paribas Arena Court.
After enduring that painful collapse, Zverev nuked Rome’s red clay as “the worst court I’ve ever played on.”
Asked about the windy conditions, Zverev took aim at what he suggests are shoddy court conditions creating bad bounces.
“It was difficult to play. I mean, to be honest, the court, I think this is the worstcourt I’ve ever played on,” Zverev said. “Juniors, professional, futures, practice, I never played on a court where the court quality is that bad.

Third seed Alexander Zverev holds strong trader consensus favoritism over qualifier Cristian Garin in their Monte Carlo Masters second-round clash on clay, driven by his world No. 3 ranking, consistent Masters 1000 deep runs, and recent Roland Garros final appearance highlighting elite clay form. Garin, ranked No. 109, enters with fresh momentum from a dominant 6-2, 6-4 upset of Matteo Arnaldi in the first round, showcasing his heavy topspin grinding suited to the slow Monte Carlo courts. Their head-to-head stands at 2-1 for Garin on clay—including a straight-sets quarterfinal win over Zverev in Munich last year—adding upset potential, though Zverev's baseline power and serve typically prevail in high-stakes ATP 1000 encounters absent injury concerns.
Alexander Zverev turned himself into the kind of player who could win high-end (but not Grand Slams) tournaments a long time ago. No matter the surface, he could be dangerous. Still, his best surface statistically has been clay, which is why his second-round match at the Monte-Carlo Masters was so shocking.
Facing Cristian Garin, a former No. 17 on the ATP tour but currently ranked outside the top 100, the German dropped the first set 6-4, which clearly wasn't the end of the match. Sets are lost all the time, of course, and when Zverev, the three-seed in Monte-Carlo, came back to win set two, all seemed right again.
