In what has become a tradition at the BMW Open in Much, Alexander Zverev was handed an uncomfortable-looking pair of lederhosen, a traditional German leather garb, to wear after winning the title.

Of course, Zverev obliged. It marks the German's seventh career title, his first of 2018, and it's the first time he's successfully defended an ATP title. The 21-year-old only dropped one set throughout the tournament, eventually taking the trophy with a comfortable win against Philipp Kohlschreiber, 6-3, 6-3.

While the lederhosen is special to his German heritage, Zverev probably enjoyed his other gift more, a BMW i8 Roadster.

It'll be right back to work for Zverev, as he's the No. 2 seed in Madrid this week.
