Alexander Zverev received a rather good draw at the Australian Open with the (notable) exception that he should face Novak Djokovic in the semifinal.
Sascha had a good performance at the Hopman Cup where he won all the matches with the exception of the last one against Roger Federer. The big question mark for the German will be his fitness since he has recently stated that he pulled his hamstring to renounce to play an exhibition in Adelaide.
Sascha is eager to finally have a deep run at a major. The 21-year-old has already won 3 Master ATP1000 and the ATP Finals, but he is still struggling to win a slam. Last year he crashed out in the 3rd round in Melbourne after he lost to Hyeon Chung 5-7 7-63 2-6 6-3 6-0.

R1Â – Bedene
R2Â – Chardy

R4Â – Raonic/Chung/Wawrinka
