QUEENS, NEW YORK: The late-night US Open round of 16 encounter between Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev, who is allegedly madly in love with his model girlfriend Sophia Thomalla, was marred by a racial epithet directed at the No. 12 seed from Germany.
When Zverev and Sinner were locked in a thrilling fourth-round tie in the wee hours of the morning in New York, the former complained to the umpire about something he overheard just before a point.
"He just said the most famous Hitler phrase there is. It is unacceptable," Zverev, who was born in Hamburg, informed British umpire James Keothavong after hearing a slur from the audience.
Zverev revealed to a reporter what the alleged fan had shouted after the game.
"He started singing the anthem of Hitler that was back in the day. It was `Deutschland über alles' and it was a bit too much," the Hamburg native who is in a relationship with the German actress Sophie Thomalla stated, as per Daily Mail.
