Alexander Zverev & girlfriend Sophia enjoy fun night out while in Austria for WorldChanger Days ahead of Wimbledon
World No. 3 Alexander Zverev and his girlfriend, German actress and model Sophia Thomalla, took a break from tennis preparations to enjoy a lively night out in Austria during the WorldChanger Days event, held June 22–23, 2025, at the Bio-Hotel Stanglwirt in Tyrol. The couple’s attendance, shared via Thomalla’s Instagram Story, showcased their support for Zverev’s foundation and offered a glimpse into their strong bond as Zverev gears up for Wimbledon, starting June 30, 2025.
The WorldChanger Days, a gathering of over 400 visionaries and public figures, partnered with the Alexander Zverev Foundation to raise funds for children with diabetes, a cause close to Zverev’s heart since his own diagnosis at age four. The event featured celebrity tennis and pickleball doubles matches under the motto “Spielend helfen” (help by playing), raising over €100,000. Notable attendees included tennis legend Boris Becker and German celebrities Victoria Swarovski and Pamela Reif. Thomalla’s Instagram post captured the couple enjoying the festive atmosphere, mingling with prominent figures, as reported by *Sportskeeda* on June 25, 2025.
Zverev, who holds a 35-13 record in 2025, including a Munich title and Australian Open runner-up finish, has had a solid grass-court season despite falling to Taylor Fritz in the Stuttgart Open final (6-3, 7-6(7-0)) and Daniil Medvedev in Halle’s semifinals (6-4, 6-3). His foundation’s charity efforts, supported by Thomalla, highlight his off-court impact. “Becoming a professional tennis player was always my dream,” Zverev said at a June 2025 Medtronic Diabetes event, emphasizing his mission to empower diabetic children.[](https://www.sportskeeda.com/tennis/news-alexander-zverev-s-girlfriend-sophia-shows-support-german-returns-clay-foundation-s-event-ahead-wimbledon)
Thomalla, 35, has been a steadfast presence since the couple began dating in 2020, often cheering Zverev courtside, including at Munich and Halle in 2025. Their relationship, which went public in 2021, has faced scrutiny over their seven-and-a-half-year age gap, but both remain unfazed. “Sophia gives me peace and security,” Zverev told *Tennis MAGAZIN* in 2021, crediting her support for his on-court success. Thomalla’s vibrant presence at WorldChanger Days, where she also attended a clay-court charity event, underscores her role in Zverev’s life and philanthropy.
As Zverev, the third seed at Wimbledon, aims to surpass his career-best fourth-round result at SW19, the Austrian getaway provided a moment of relaxation. However, a potential tax issue looms, with German players facing dual UK and German taxes on Wimbledon earnings, as noted by *Express.co.uk* on June 24, 2025. Despite these challenges, Zverev’s focus remains sharp, buoyed by Thomalla’s support and their shared commitment to making a difference.
