Alexander Zverev had double the reason to celebrate as he clinched the Munich title on his 28th birthday.

Zverev’s opponent, Ben Shelton, also extended birthday wishes after the match, joking during the trophy ceremony:
“I want to congratulate Sascha. It’s your home tournament and a big win. I didn’t know it was your birthday—otherwise, I’d have said this was a birthday gift!”

Reflecting on the win, Zverev called the moment “extremely special.”
“I always love winning tournaments in Germany. It’s probably the most special thing I can do. It’s definitely a great birthday present, let’s put it that way,” he said in his post-match interview.

He added that facing Shelton wasn’t easy:
“I knew I had to bring my best tennis today. Ben’s been playing great all week—the conditions suit him really well. It’s hot and fast, but I enjoy that too. I’ve had a great birthday so far.”

With his birthday victory, Zverev not only thrilled the local crowd but also received plenty of love and support off the court—making this milestone one to remember.
