Zverev may go shopping for gold during stopover in Dubai
GERMAN SENSATION TO SPEND FIVE DAYS IN EMIRATE AFTER ATP FINALS
■ in Dubai. “I’m going there [Dubai] after London. I’m going to Dubai for five days and then the Maldives for vacation,” Zverev told Gulf News.
The German youngster may indulge in some shopping while in Dubai next week — looking for some gold could well be on his agenda. Zverev now sports a Richard Mille watch on his wrist. For this right-handed player who is extremely powerful in his game while being comfortable on any surface, the RM 27-01 is the ideal timepiece as its carbon nanotube case weighs just 18.83 grammes.
In addition, the German has at least three gold chains around his neck. “I mean, I’ve had those chains since I was a little kid and I’m never taking them off. They have a meaning for me ... that’s why I wear them,” Zverev said.
The German, currently the youngest player in the ATP Top10, has already put himself in contention for a spot in the semifinals of the ATP Finals following his win against Marin Cilic here on Monday. He was scheduled to take on Novak Djokovic later yesterday. Even if he loses, Zverev could still advance.
