As a type 1 diabetic who tried to play competitive tennis I can understand how hard it is for Sasha to perform at such a high level. He is nothing short of an hero
Exactly, I also have type 1, I don't write in reddit or anything because people there is pretty...arrogant. Those thinking that it's easy to manage diabetes type1 are deluded, is so exhausting and frustating. I práctice surf and it's pretty complicated and sometimes scary, what this guy does it's basically hero-level.
So inspiring. I had no idea either, had only heard of an NBA player here or a football player there. I'm 2 decades older and have spent my life hiding in bathrooms to take my insulin, going too low or too high for fear of bothering people... So I can only admire his courage for coming out, and his generosity for contributing to raising awareness. Thanks to this great champion on behalf of all future generations afflicted by this chronic disease!
There are several top level NCAA tennis players who have T1D, they also don't talk about. At least two I saw have tubing for insulin pumps. With the advances of pumps and CGMs that communicate with each other, it's no longer a disease that prohibits high level competitiveness.
This makes me believe he can make it around that injury and all the desappointements and comeback as strong as he was vs Nadal last year in the french peak zverev but maybe with more luck and a slam win , I hope he wins a slam to prove that limits only exists within the mind
who could ever think of Sasha! this confession is so intimate and inspiring at the same time . We just learn that even handsome successful ppl can actually bear this inside! I AM SURE this will help many others. Spassiba Sasha Viel Dank
I am hypoglycemic which has similarities to Type 1 Diabetes. I am also an athlete (Basketball). Thank goodness I am not diabetic however, as it is much worse according to what I know about it. Thanks Alexander for bringing awareness to this disease. Much success to you in all that you do. ;)
So much respect Sasha. Never knew about your type 1 DM and your foundation. Best wishes for your career. You have it in you, just work on your inner dialogue. Change your demeanor. Ask Roger for help. You have come so far, don’t give up. Bless your parents for giving you this chance.❤ Sasha should oppose the late matches. Now I know why he expressed his concern about late match ending at 4 am at Acapulco last yr. This is not fair for any human being let alone a type 1 Diabetic with strenuous physical game. No wonder he lost the next match. I can totally relate what he is going through.
Great story, great athlete, respect to Alexander for opening up like this. God, that terrible soundtrack on a constant loop, so unnecessary, so false. Just let these incredible people speak without trying to turn it into a cheap television drama.
Really appreciate this video, which gives out hope to several people and children who live with Type 1 Diabetes. Just one request - kindly do not use the words 'suffering from' Type 1 diabetes, as you have in the description. This gives out a very negative vibe, especially to impressionable kids who might read it. The only reason kids with Type 1 would 'suffer', would be if they had lack of insulin, testing supplies or healthcare. Type 1 per se is not what's making them 'suffer'. Kids with Type 1 can and ARE thriving with the condition...Alexander Zverev being a prime example of this. Thanks 🙏
Do you have diabetes type1? It's a horrible disease, that it's never "managed" to the point of you being or feeling normal, for longer than a day. Sugar stability it's almost impossible to keep for most of us.
@@m.a.g.3920 I agree that it's no walk in the park, however, I wouldn't call it 'a horrible disease'. It's not one. It's a disorder and there are much worse disorders than this one. Is it easy - NO, but you need to learn how to manage it....and it's MUCH MORE easier to do that in today's day and age :)
@@parinaaz_musicislife i have diabetes type1 since 3.5yo now 35, I know all the "tricks". It's not an easy disease by any means, at least for some of us, seems that it's not the same for everyone, different metabolism.
@@m.a.g.3920 I am living with T1D myself...for a much longer time now. And yes, you're right - it's different for everyone. No 2 Type 1s will have the same issues. U just do what's best for u :)
@@parinaaz_musicislife I also have ADHD which makes everything more complicated but I cannot use ADHD medication cause It drains my energy too much. I research about diabetes type1, I won't just wait for whoever to solve It. What most people know about diabetes type1 is oversimplified if not completely wrong. To begin with, the autoinmune reaction it's not the cause of It, but a reaction of the body to some dysfunction in beta-cells, it's not beta cells whom are responsible but Alpha cells, alpha cells are the ones totally dysfunctional and they "rule" over beta cells, so they give wrong signals and dedifferentiate beta cells wrongly. It's a long story, but the official story is like a child's drawing compared to the real thing.
Hmmmm... he might be another case where it's a good thing that he's told that he couldn't do something. Some people just find it as motivation to push themselves and prove the naysayers wrong. I still recall Federer's story where a coach told him, I think, that he couldn't be good, or wasn't talented. Something that irked him. What did Federer do? Everyday, practice hitting a thousand balls. Point is, sometimes it's a good thing to tell someone that they can't do something and similar. People can be motivated by something like that. It depends on how well you know the person, if you want to try such a tactic.
@@Nopanop Already achieved something the big 3 will never - Olympic champion, I'm not even a fan at all, but the guy has been just quite unlucky and maybe will never win that Grandslam, but he probably is too good to not win one.
Yes : you hide it very well Sascha ! I was shocked ! But the first shock about this kind of metabolic issue , it was when I read about the probable CAUSE , that triggers it ! Early childhood injections : too many vaccines before 3yo !!! 🤯🤔🧐💛💛💛
And what I've read about the history of many types of vaccines ( some ten years ago!) , made me understand why I was sick when I took my last shot at the age of 14( long time before covid!) I knew I would never take any shot in my life !! 😠😡🤬
That is absolutely wrong and misdirecting. Vaccines saves lives. Don’t even say IDDM is because of vaccines. Read medical literature before making this dangerous claim. You are playing with childrens lives.👎🏻

I didn't know Sascha had Type 1 diabetes, that's amazing how far he has come in his career
He used to take insulin during games
@@thunder300-v6v
Amazing
He deserves a Grand Slam

He is nothing short of an hero
and a wife beater

Zverev's speaking about having diabetes will definitely help kids who also suffer from diabetes to not set a limit for their accomplishments!
WOW! How amazing what he has achieved.

This guy is a true hero. I was shocked to learn that an athlete of his level was Type 1. He gives people hope.

He gave me hope so much, now when I am diagnosed for 14 days at 25 years of age. He's a hero in my opinion.
He is an abuser
Stop throwing this term around so freely
Have a good day
Diabetes can grip anyone. A world class athlete with a very risky condition. Good on him.
Huge respect for Sasha
I Love Sascha and always have, he may have flaws like all of us do but i see greatness in him and i hope he sees it too.
Little Sascha - so cute ! And the smile of the big one - so sweet ! 😄😘😘😘
he is an inspiration for all of us 😊😊 I just knew that 😮😮😮 keep moving forward, zverev ❤
Good for Zverev !! Keep up the good work.
my brother has a type 1 diabetes too and i could relate everything he said wow big respect

Abusive people

Inspirational! Thanks, Sasha! From now on you're my favorite player!
Much as I have always disliked Zverev, this is pretty awesome and makes me respect him more
Why have you always disliked him?
Hats off
❤❤❤❤ my respect to Zverev!

he's a Champion.
I like he said that beause is wood for everyone I love him ❤❤❤
This is awesome, I have 3 type 1 children... ❤️
Strange, that normally doesn't happen...
that's beautiful!!!
Common Sascha you are real champion
My hat off to Zverev. I don't know why they say he cannot use his insulin during a break. Ridiculous!!! These people are ignorant.
Proud moment
Love n respect ❤
Alexandar 💪❤️
Respect ✊
I'm a new fan 🙌 he's about to play Medvedev in Aussie Open 👍
Keeping it under control. Know what to eat and stay on your medication. Everything is about moderation and control.
