The Story of the Season
Alexander Zverev was the most prolific player of 2024. He played 90 matches at 23 tournaments, winning 69—his personal best, corresponding to a win-rate of 76.7%. These figures are a fairly accurate reflection of his season: He was a consistently good player, only dropping out of five events before the quarterfinals and winning two Masters 1000 titles—but is still clearly behind Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz in these statistics.
Zverev started the year by winning the United Cup and reaching the semifinals of the Australian Open. But he finally found his form on the red clay, winning in Rome and finishing runner-up at Roland Garros, where he was just one set away from his first major title before falling to Alcaraz.
Setbacks like these bitter defeats, the lingering effects of his ankle injury from the 2022 French Open semifinal against Rafael Nadal, a knee injury suffered this summer at Wimbledon and even pneumonia did not stop the 27-year-old from continuing to tour the world and compete at the highest level.
