The tennis world was rocked after allegations that No 7 and recent US Open finalist Alex Zverev was the perpetrator of domestic abuse on an ex-girlfriend.

The 23-year-old German is the subject of allegations made by former partner Olya Sharypova. The claims come in the immediate aftermath of a different one-time partner, Brenda Patea, saying she is expecting Zverev’s child.

In an interview with the Russian publication Championat, Sharypova expressed a willingness to take a lie detector test.

According to her the incidents mainly took place during last year’s US Open in New York, 12 months ahead of him reaching the final this September.
