Notably, it is worth mentioning that this was the second domestic violence case against Zverev and the German has found a way out yet again. In 2023, the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) closed an investigation that was launched after another ex-girlfriend, tennis player Olga Sharypova, accused Zverev of domestic abuse. The ATP cited insufficient evidence as its reason for dropping the case.
