Zverev and Pocher have been friends for a long time, a few years ago Pocher and his current wife Amira even visited the seventh in the world rankings in Monaco. Even if Amira first had to refresh the memories, for example that of scoring a goal while playing FIFA with Dominic Thiem .
Zverev is currently stuck in Florida, even if there are, of course, worse locations than those at your own pool. He is currently trying to carry out his training, can go to a private place and in the gym, "even if I don't know exactly what for," said the 22-year-old. "I only miss Brenda," he said, his girlfriend is currently in Berlin with her mother.
Did Zverev already have the corona virus?
It even seems possible that Zverev had already caught the corona virus. At the start of the season in Australia after his return from China. "You can't imagine how I coughed," said Zverev, "I coughed five or six hours a night for four weeks, and had a fever in Brisbane for two days." Pocher, who has been tested positive and is in corona quarantine, also spoke to Zverev about a possible illness. At that time, nothing was known about Corona, says Zverev, who has not been tested to date. "I don't want to say now that I had corona virus and played semi-finals in Australia ," he said.
One of the "happier" of the Corona break, everyone agreed, but was Roger Federer . He had had his knee operated shortly before the tennis break and would have been out anyway by summer. Zverev had already emailed the maestro in this regard, writing to him: "You have received some information from the Chinese!" Federer didn't answer, "he just sent me a smiley face," said Zverev. "When can you have your knee operated better than now? You can't be more lucky," said tennis fan Pocher.
Federer is now also affected by the corona virus break: The intended return to the lawn season falls flat after the Wimbledon cancellation. On the positive side: Federer has already given his approval for Hall 2021 and will then also start in Wimbledon. He would then be almost 40 years old.
