Becker not interested in taking charge of Zverev

BERLIN - Boris Becker has shot down rumors he is poised to coach rising German star Alexander Zverev, who recently split with Juan Carlos Ferrero.

Zverev parted company with Ferrero, 38, a Spanish former world No 1, after just six months.

However, Becker, 50, who was last year declared bankrupt by a London court, said on Tuesday he wants to focus on his work with the German Tennis Federation (DTB) and as a Eurosport pundit.
