Alexander Zverev's Playful Jab at Trinity Rodman After U.S. Open Victory

German tennis pro Alexander Zverev poked fun at his rival Ben Shelton’s girlfriend, Trinity Rodman, following his U.S. Open men’s singles win.

“Trinity, I thought you had a game today, no?” Zverev, 29, said during his winner’s speech inside New York City’s USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center on Sunday, September 13, following his 6-3, 7-6, 5-7, 6-2 defeat over Shelton, 23. Shelton and pro soccer player Trinity, 24, began dating in March 2025.

“Well done to you as well,” the Grand Slam winner continued to direct at Trinity, whose father is NBA legend Dennis Rodman, as the crowd erupted in laughter. “You’re the lucky charm, so … not today, but usually.”
