Wed Apr 16 14:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Zverev Confident of Roland Garros Comeback Despite Recent Slump

**Munich, Germany** – Alexander Zverev, top seed at the BMW Open by Bitpanda, is aiming for a strong finish to the clay court season ahead of Roland Garros. Despite a recent dip in form following his Australian Open final loss, Zverev remains optimistic about his chances.

Hundreds of fans greeted Zverev enthusiastically at his practice session in Munich, a city where he holds fond memories, having won the BMW Open twice previously. The tournament, now an ATP 500 event, boasts a newly constructed Center Court, which Zverev praised.

Since his Australian Open final appearance, Zverev admits to a string of unexpected defeats, acknowledging he has “lost to a lot of guys that I should have beaten.” This slump, he says, is not unique to him, with fellow top players like Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic also experiencing inconsistent results. However, he emphasizes his belief in his ability to perform on the big stage, pointing to his recent Australian Open run as proof.

Zverev attributes part of his struggles to a decision to play the Golden Swing in South America immediately after the Australian Open, acknowledging in hindsight that skipping a break wasn’t the wisest move. He plans to learn from this experience, focusing on regaining his form in the coming weeks to peak in time for Roland Garros. Zverev aims to win the BMW Open for a third time, viewing it as a crucial stepping stone to his Paris goal. He believes a couple of close wins will be the key to rediscovering his top form.
