Germany’s former Davis Cup captain Niki Pilic, who is from Serbia, said that Zverev used the drug. Today Alexander Zverev denied the story, and said he had never heard of the substance before.
“I honestly never took it. I do not know where that is even coming from. I have no idea what that substance even is, and everything that has been there is absolutely not true,” he said after his victory at Indian Wells against Ivan Dodig.
“I am getting tested with doping, you know, almost every week, so, you know, if I would be taking that substance which is not allowed, there would be bigger news than just that little article. »
In the next round, he will play against Grigor Dimitrov.
