Alexander Zverev, diabetic since the age of three, had managed to hide his diabetes from the cameras. The 26-year-old said he was fighting a battle with the organizers and referees of the France International.
The organizers and the FFT defended themselves, justifying that injecting something on the court seemed "weird", especially in front of millions of viewers. These bites are allowed in other ATP tournaments. The physical situation of Alexander ZvereV will be to watch during his semifinal this Friday.
