Former world number two Alexander Zverev will not face disciplinary action following an investigation into allegations of domestic abuse.

The ATP investigation found there was insufficient evidence to substantiate claims made by the German’s former girlfriend Olya Sharypova.

In 2020 she accused Zverev of violence and emotional abuse during their relationship. The 25 year-old has denied these allegations since then.

The ATP decision could be re-evaluated should new evidence come to light.

The governing body of men’s professional tennis said it commissioned a private investigation company, the Lake Forest Group, to look into the allegations.

It conducted extensive interviews with both Sharypova and Zverev. The investigation company also spoke to 24 other people, including family, friends and players.

The 15-month investigation reviewed text messages, audio files and photos, including material voluntarily extracted from Zverev’s electronic devices via a third-party forensic expert.
