Tit for Tat Tress Tussle between Zverev and Thomalla
A humorous spat between Alexander Zverev (26) and girlfriend Sophia Thomalla (34) over his locks!
Yesterday, Sophia Thomalla playfully posted: "I thought he was in Turin and not in Wunschhausen." Translated: "I call the styling shots." In the evening, post his opening victory against young gun Carlos Alcaraz (20), Zverev retorted: "She'd prefer him to sport haystack hair, out of sheer jealousy."
He's got a theory. Zverev: "She'd want me to look absurd, invisible to other women, only for her," he chuckles.
But he's the boss of his coif! "I'll do as I please with my hair. But I enjoy her opinion, yet make my own decision." He could opt for a Zorro-length do next, but laughs, "Then I'll be bald in no time."
The hair-raising spat began due to a bet lost on holiday in the Maldives a year ago. Zverev's bet: a year without a haircut. Twelve months have passed.
Now, we're intrigued by Thomalla's retaliatory move. If she even remembers the hair-raising episode. For her new TV show on RTL+, she went on a self-experiment journey with opiates, flaunting the devastating effects on Instagram.
Perhaps the second self-experiment episode will include a salon visit with her partner? He'd then be the three-time world champ sitting in the chair for a more manageable mat-removal!
His next opponent is Russian Daniil Medvedev (27), on Wednesday evening at 9pm, live on Sky. A win would secure him a place in the semi-finals on Saturday.
