Alexander played a four-set match in the first round of the Australian Open against Dominik Köpfer. The game lasted three hours and 15 minutes, and Alexander won 4-6, 6-3, 7-6, 6-3. During the match, Zverev served 19 times with two double faults and won 78% of the points on the first serve and 59% on the second. Return statistics: 35%/33%, winners/unforced errors statistic: 50/58. Before the AO-2024, Zverev won the United Cup as a member of the German national team.

The Slovak qualified for the Australian Open, defeating Trungelliti and Kudla. In the first round, Lukas played Soon Woo Kwon, the 697th-ranked player in the world. Lukas won the match against Kwon 7:6, 4:6, 7:6, 6:6, and 6:3 in three hours and 13 minutes. During the game against the Korean, Klein made 16 aces with six double faults and won 73% of the points on the first serve and 51% on the second. 

We can't call the tournament's first match an easy ride for Zverev. Alexander's compatriot gave him a real fight, but the German will have an easier time. Klein is inferior to Zverev, so Zverev has a great opportunity in the second round to save energy for the higher rounds of the Australian Open.
