Zverev and Sinner share off season moment
With the 2025 season now over, tennis players have started their short period of rest before preparations begin for the new year. This week, Alexander Zverev posted a picture on Instagram showing himself and Jannik Sinner sitting together on a flight to the Maldives. He added the caption, “I guess it’s Maldives season for everyone, huh?”, which quickly caught the attention of fans.
Zverev and Sinner are two of the most recognised players on the ATP Tour. Zverev is known for his powerful baseline game and his consistent presence in the top rankings. Sinner has built a strong reputation for his calm attitude, clean hitting and impressive rise through the sport at a young age. Both players have shared many competitive battles during the season, often meeting in important matches on big stages.
Moments like this remind fans that while these athletes may be rivals during tournaments, they are not enemies off the court. Tennis players travel the world together for most of the year, share locker rooms, warm-up areas and the same demanding schedule. Friendships form naturally, and there is a strong level of respect among them.
The photo posted by Zverev showed that, even after long, intense competition, players still enjoy each other’s company once the pressure lifts. It also reflects something tennis fans often forget: rivalries may exist on court, but away from it, the players have always shown support, respect and genuine connection with one another.
