Alexander Zverev’s Girlfriend Sophia Thomalla Sparks Excitement as She Cheers for Her Beau at the Laver Cup

“I’m so excited about returning to Laver Cup,” said Alexander Zverev earlier this year. It seems that Zverev, who battled alongside his French Open final round rival Carlos Alcaraz, is not having a great time in the event, held in his homeland, as the duo suffered a loss in the doubles match. He might have failed to propel Team Europe forward, but his girlfriend ensured her presence in the event, cheering him on as he took the court!

Earlier in an interview, Alexander Zverev described the excitement of his upcoming match in the Laver Cup as a “once-in-a-lifetime experience.” But his dream soon crashed in the very first round of the doubles match, which ended in Team World’s favor with Taylor Fritz and Ben Shelton sealing a straight set win (6-7, 4-6). Nevertheless, his girlfriend, the German model and actress Sophia Thomalla, with whom he publicly announced his relationship in 2021, was there in the stands and continued to show her support for Zverev. During the clash, the 34-year-old Berlin-based actress took to her Instagram and shared a picture of the match where Alcaraz and Zverev can be seen in action on-court.

Alexander Zverev, who was a crucial member during Team Europe’s victory in 2018, 2019, and 2021 in the Laver Cup, might not have performed his best in doubles but will potentially show his magic in his upcoming singles match against Fritz! And we will most certainly find Thomalla, who has previously attended Zverev’s Wimbledon matches, supporting him from the stands like always!
