To overthrow the world No.1 who was playing in the form of his life was far from easy. In fact, at the start of the match, the ball was in Novak’s court, as Zverev was one set away from being eliminated. However, the German turned the game on its course. Now Alexander’s brother has revealed the secret of his brother’s epic return.

âHe was actually down 1-6, 2-3 with Novak Djokovic on serve, and then he changed his bracelets from hot pink or red, whatever it was, to black and white. It’s the German color and I thought “now he’s going to be a game changer”. I guess the bracelet was the secret in the end â, noted his brother, Mischa Zverev.
