After five straight loses, this victory is comforting, says Zverev

After winning the ATP Finals trophy, Zverev said, "I have won this title from the person to whom I have been losing the last 5 matches in a row. I had to give my best. Now I am happy and ready to celebrate the holiday with this victory. For me the season is ending with such a good win. What could have been better than this."

"It's very special, I'm super thrilled and super happy right now," he added.

"There's no better way to end the season than winning here so obviously I'm incredibly happy. But I'm now very much looking forward to next year already."
