After knocking out world number-one Novak Djokovic in the semi-final, Zverev, 24, beat Russia’s Karen Khachanov in straight sets to win the men’s Olympic gold medal in Tokyo earlier this month. However, he insists he needs a break once the ATP season ends with Germany one of the 18 teams to play in the week-long Davis Cup tournament starting on November 25.
“I’m only human and I need a holiday. We play from January to October and I won’t play in November,” Zverev told magazine Sports Bild.
