Boris Becker, the six-time Grand Slam champion, was recently seen observing Alexander Zverev’s training session in Monte Carlo, sparking speculation about a potential collaboration between the two German tennis stars. The sighting has fueled rumors that Becker might join Zverev’s coaching team as the World No. 2 prepares for the European clay season.
Becker, who has previously coached Novak Djokovic and Holger Rune, is known for his expertise and ability to guide players to success. His presence at Zverev’s practice has led to discussions about whether he could bring fresh insights and strategies to Zverev’s game, especially as the player looks to regain his top form after a series of challenging performances.
While neither Becker nor Zverev has confirmed any official partnership, the possibility of the two teaming up has excited tennis fans, particularly in Germany. Zverev has acknowledged his strong connection with Becker but has remained tight-lipped about the rumors, leaving room for speculation.
As the Monte-Carlo Masters approaches, all eyes will be on Zverev to see if Becker’s influence becomes evident in his performance. Whether or not this collaboration materializes, the prospect of Becker joining Zverev’s team adds an intriguing layer to the upcoming clay season.
