Alexander Zverev Wins Olympic Gold

German tennis star triumphs in Tokyo

Zverev defeats Khachanov in thrilling final

Alexander Zverev has won the gold medal in the men's singles tennis event at the Tokyo Olympics. The 24-year-old German defeated Karen Khachanov of Russia in the final, 6-3, 6-1.

Zverev is the first German man to win an Olympic gold medal in tennis since Tommy Haas in 2000. He is also the youngest player to win the Olympic gold medal in men's singles since Andre Agassi in 1996.

Zverev's victory is a major upset, as Khachanov was the higher-ranked player and had won their previous two meetings. However, Zverev played aggressively from the start and never allowed Khachanov to get into the match. He broke Khachanov's serve five times and hit 30 winners to just 12 unforced errors.

Zverev's victory is a major triumph for German tennis. He is now one of the top players in the world and is a contender to win Grand Slams in the future.
