WATCH: Alexander Zverev catches up with $400M-worth star Jackie Chan ahead of Australian Open final against Jannik Sinner

Alexander Zverev had a warm interaction with Jackie Chan at the Australian Open. The German is preparing for his third Grand Slam final and hoping for more luck to favor him after two failed attempts.

The multitalented Hong Kong star Jackie Chan made a special appearance at the Australian Open, mingling with some of tennis’s biggest names. In a video shared on the Melbourne Slam's official YouTube channel, Chan is seen touring the complex and posing for photos with players.

The $400-million star (as per Celebrity Net Worth) was also spotted working out alongside Australian tennis legend Lleyton Hewitt in the players' gym. Later, Chan met Alexander Zverev in the tournament control area, where the two enjoyed a friendly chat, ending with a warm embrace and a fist bump.

Zverev is set to participate in his third Grand Slam final on Sunday, January 26. He has piled up two agonizingly close attempts earlier, losing in five sets to Dominic Thiem at the 2020 US Open and Carlos Alcaraz at last year's French Open. This time, the German is hoping for some luck to favor him.

On Friday, January 24, Alexander Zverev took to the court for the 13th time against Novak Djokovic. The pair had shared several friendly moments throughout the tournament but were on different corners with only one able to advance to the coveted Australian Open final.

The first set was very tightly-contested and the German eventually came out on top via a tiebreaker. Surprisingly, Djokovic retired from the match soon after and Zverev advanced.

During his on-court interview, the 27-year-old expressed hope for some luck to favor him in his third Major final.

"Yeah, I mean, look, Grand Slam finals are always difficult. The two best players in the world are playing on that court. I lost twice in a fifth set, once in a fifth set tiebreaker at the US Open. So, I've had my tough losses. I feel like maybe it's time for me to have some luck in the Grand Slam final as well," Alexander Zverev said.

World No. 1 Jannik Sinner awaits World No. 2 Zverev in the final. Sinner is chasing his second consecutive Australian Open crown and a third Grand Slam title. He got the better of Ben Shelton in straight sets in the semifinal.
