Hope it gets better with each week

Hope it gets better with each week

Tennis professional Alexander Zverev has commented on his current health condition. “The problem I have with my lungs is not going to go away in a week or two.” “It will probably take a month or two,” the 27-year-old said in several videos.

But he now has the right medication for his pneumonia, said the Hamburg native and added: “I hope that it gets better with every week.”

Start at the Masters in Shanghai not in jeopardy

Doctors assured him that his health would not deteriorate if he exercised. That’s why he will also be competing in the Masters in Shanghai, China, which begins on Wednesday. In the metropolis of millions, Zverev is in second place behind the Italian world number one Jannik Sinner. The Tokyo Olympic champion has a bye in the first round and will then face a qualifier.

Alexander Zverev recently decided not to take part in the tournament in China’s capital Beijing: “I felt very bad during and after the Laver Cup.”
