The sport of tennis is widely popular and played by people worldwide. - Tennis player Zverev intends to withdraw from the upcoming grass court event.
German tennis sensation, Alexander Zverev, has little to no chance of participating in the Stuttgart grass tournament following his loss at the French Open. Zverev, 27, made this known after his defeat on Sunday at the hands of Spanish player Carlos Alcaraz with a score of 3-6, 6-2, 7-5, 1-6, 2-6: "The likelihood of me playing in Stuttgart is roughly on par with the probability of me leaving this very moment and securing victory."
Despite his recent statement, Zverev had earlier confirmed his attendance at the grass event in Baden-Württemberg's Weissenhof. The tournament organizers had been enthusiastically advertising his presence as part of the main field for the Stuttgart event, scheduled to kick off on Thursday.
Zverev's previous outing in Stuttgart dates back five years. In 2019, he suffered an early exit, this time at the hands of none other than Dustin Brown, a grass specialist from Lower Saxony.

Despite his intention to withdraw from the Stuttgart grass tournament, Zverev initially planned to participate, prompting excitement from organizers of the International tennis event in France. If Zverev had participated, it would have marked his return to the Lawn tournament in Stuttgart, five years after his early exit at the hands of local tennis player Dustin Brown. However, Zverev's recent loss at the prestigious French Open, played in Paris, might suggest a different path for his upcoming schedule in tennis, potentially leaving him focused on regaining his form before international events, such as the Tennis competitions in Germany.
