Alexander Zverev's girlfriend Sophia Thomalla recently hosted a Q&A session where she shared some funny and candid details about her love life.

The German actress and TV presenter, who has been linked to the World No. 6 since 2020, answered questions from her followers, including how she would compare tennis and soccer players’ wives and partners, and how she would describe Zverev in three words.

Zverev is coming off an early exit at the 2024 Acapulco Open, an ATP 500 tournament in Mexico. The German, who was the top seed and the 2021 champion, was upset in the first round by World No. 57 Daniel Altmaier 6-3, 3-6, 6-3. Altmaier went on to lose in the second round against Serbia's Miomir Kecmanovic in straight sets.

In her Q&A session hosted on Thursday, February 29, one follower asked Thomalla how she would compare or describe tennis with soccer players' wives or partners. Thomalla, who previously dated Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius, replied with a witty and sarcastic remark.

"Soccer women come in clutch to match, tennis women come in jute bag because they have to carry so much stuff 😂," Thomalla wrote.
