While the popular belief still remains intact that there’s a massive wedge between the top three ranked men in tennis and the rest, the Gen Y players sure know how to make things look cool. Alexander Zverev proved it on Thursday when he managed to draw loud cheer even after a wrong serve.

Sascha Zverev may be doing extremely in his preferred sport as he is current World No. 4, but he surely has some backup options lined up if things don’t work out. The 21-year-old showed on Thursday that apart from smashing winners from one end of the court, he also shares an affinity for pocketing the ball perfectly.

The first Grand Slam is still in its early stages with no major upset as such and Zverev has had the perfect start with wins against Aljaz Bedene and Jeremy Chardy. The incident happened during his match against Chardy which was stretched too far for Zverev’s comfort to the fifth set before the World No. 4 eventually won it.

One of Zverev’s serves was seen well outside the box with it instantly being screamed out. Chardy had still managed to return it as the ball went up high and came down straight to Zverev. The German was stretching his left socket as the ball went inside just perfectly. The crowd broke into a loud cheer as Zverev coolly took his position for the second serve. He didn’t get any point for being cool though.
