Boris Becker says he may return to coaching on the ATP Tour

Former world number one Boris Becker says he may return to coaching on the ATP Tour.

He told Der Spiegel that he had received several inquiries, but did not name anyone.

Becker ruled out coaching Alexander Zverev again, despite having worked with the German player at matches and on the practice court.

He said disagreements involving a family member who spoke Russian were unacceptable to him.

The relationship had its ups and downs, Becker said, and he praised Zverev for winning his first Grand Slam title in Paris this year.

Zverev also won the US Open and rose to world number one, according to the story.

Becker said he will see what happens next year, so no new coaching role has been confirmed.
