“The abuse case vs. Alexander Zverev was shelved today by the court with the agreement of the prosecutor’s office and his former girlfriend,” Zverev’s attorney announced today.

“He agreed to this … in order to shorten the process, most importantly in the interest of the child they have together. Sasha remains innocent.”

The settlement was announced hours before his match at the Roland-Garros ½ finals vs. Casper Ruud.

His ex-girlfriend became a mother to his child 3 years ago, but at that time, they were already separated.
