Alexander Zverev → Alexander Zverev Sr. – This Alexander Zverev has been identified as Alexander Zverev Sr. on his sons' ATP and ITF profiles, on his own ATP profile, and in interviews. The Wikipedia article which deals with his youngest son Alexander Zverev Jr. has recently been moved to Sascha Zverev in order to differentiate between the two. Moving this Alexander Zverev article to Alexander Zverev Sr. would not only list the article under Zverev Sr.'s most common name per WP:COMMONNAME, it would further help to clarify which is which when searching for either player on Wikipedia.

 * Support move and support having Alexander Zverev as a disambiguation page. Note though that the move target should be Alexander Zverev Sr. (without the comma) per recent changes to WP:JR. Jevansen (talk) 06:58, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Support the move. I agree that Alexander Zverev (disambiguation) should be created to link to both Sr and Jr and maybe others with similar names. However, I also think that Sascha Zverev should be moved to Alexander Zverev. He is probably the more prominent of the two by now, and ATP, ITF and many news articles have him by 'Alexander', not 'Sascha'. Sascha Zverev could remain a redirect.
