Sydney, Dec 31 (SocialNews.XYZ) Alexander Zverev kickstarted his 2024 season in style Saturday with twin victories at the United Cup here to spearhead Germany to 2-1 win over Italy at Ken Rosewall Arena.
After a strong singles win over Lorenzo Sonego in which he did not face a break point, Zverev teamed with Angelique Kerber to win the deciding mixed doubles rubber 6-3, 6-0 over Sonego and Angelica Moratelli.
Earlier on Saturday night Zverev levelled the tie with a powerful 6-7(5) 6-3, 6-4 win Sonego, after Jasmine Paolini had given Italy a 1-0 lead, surviving a bout of cramps to defeat Kerber 6-4, 7-5 in the former World No.1's comeback match from maternity leave.
Three-time Grand Slam champion Kerber was competing for the first time since Wimbledon 2022, having given birth to daughter Liana in February.
