The Indian Wells Masters are in the second round, while the men's singles top seed Zverev is already out early. In fact, although Zverev is once again the top seed in this year's tour, his exit is not accidental.

First of all, he has a historically poor record at the Indian Wells Masters, and is arguably the worst of his nine Masters tournaments in terms of statistics. There should not have been much expectation of a good result from him, but the fact that the German also received the vote in the pre-race pundit predictions shows that the experts are still confident in his resurgence.

Secondly, the German's opponent in the first game was not weak, not only the Dutch brother, but also won the semi-finals at the Dubai Championship that ended last week.

In addition, Zverev started the season with a runner-up finish at the Australian Open, but he did not show the confidence to surpass when Sinner, who was ranked in front of him, was banned for three months.

In the previous South American clay tournament, although Zverev Jr. participated in the Buenos Aires tournament, he was also eliminated by the Argentine Cerendro.

Switching to Acapulco, he was once again defeated in the race he had won a few years earlier. After a series of sluggish forms, Mo said that he is approaching Sinner in points, even if he can stabilize the current ranking of No. 2 in the world, it does not look solid.

Alcaraz, who won the first race in Rotterdam after his first appearance, is a natural goal for him to regain the world number one.

What the hell happened to Zverev? Whenever he makes bold statements and wants to do something, reality frequently slaps him in the face.

Remember when he won the year-end finals in 2021 and looked forward to next season? He bluntly said that Deyo, Mr. Mei and himself will form a formidable triumvirate. That season, he did have a proud record, including an Olympic singles gold medal and a Cincinnati Masters title, but then in the French Open the following year, he withdrew in the semi-finals due to injury, and his final results plummeted. On the contrary, the post-00s twin stars Aka and Sinner began to emerge, replacing Zverev and becoming Djokov's biggest opponent.

In the group stage of last year's year-end finals, he was the best player, but who knew that he suffered from Fritz in the semifinals, and finally had to be out of the game. At this year's Australian Open, he also swore after reaching the final. There is a saying in China that there are only three things to do, and when they enter the Grand Slam title race for the third time, the German can only play the role of accompanying the prince to study. It's really fateful when you sigh!

Zverev, who is now sitting on the second side and finishing second in the Grand Slam three times, will he win the Grand Slam title as Nadal said?(Source: Tennis Home Author: Luo Cheng Qiye)
