According to the Chinese star, a light-hearted topic often comes up in conversation with his friends when he is enjoying time off the court.
“They really care about my haircut!” Zhang revealed in the latest edition of ATP Uncovered’s ‘I Am’ series. “Because my hair is curly [and] I had long hair some time last year, so they always started talking about my haircut!”
The Chinese No. 1 also revealed his childhood idol and the two-time major champion after whom he tried to model his two-handed backhand.
“When I was around 12 or 13, I tried [it] but it was not for me,” Zhang said. “I’d say it’s a little bit different.”
