He slides as far on hard court as i ever did on clay. Insanely quick.
I am trying to think who these guys remind me of on the court. One thing that I will say is that Sinner is listed at 6'2 and Alcaraz 6'1. There's no way this can be accurate. Sinner looks three inches taller, 2.5 minimum. I guess I see a little Andy Murray/Del Potro in Jannik's game. Easy and sustained power during their rallies. Murray probably moves slightly better but I could see Sinner developing more of a net game. As for Alcaraz he appears to be an amalgam of the greats. He moves like a combination of Djokovic and Chang. Very flexible like the Djoker. His game is more like a Nadal/Agassi mix. He has that quick wrist action and can flick a hammer winner seemingly out of nowhere. We're talking about a superior athlete which might give him a leg-up over Sinner the next 10-15 years. He's in the top 1% of athletes in men's tennis and it's not like these guys aren't athletes.
He's a top-1% athlete in the world, not just in tennis. Period.It's scary how much better he can get. He probably already has a very good coach, but he could do a lot worse than Carlos Moya when Rafa finally hangs 'em up.
Good to see Swiatek advance.
Gutsy, clutch performance.
3rd Grand Slam Doubles Title for the team of American Rajeev Ram, and Brit Joe Salisbury. Well earned. High level.
Does anyone rally care about Doubles other than as a way to give out more trophies?In reality, it is more fun to play. But I was never interested in watching it.
I think the first set of this match is absolutely critical for Tiafoe.
This has been some high quality tennis.
Tiafoe seems to have lost his Mojo. Uh-Oh. He needs to snap out of it. NOW.
He’s done
It's been a very strange 20 mins. He was playing at such a high level. That said Alcaraz is special.
American tennis players are soft and should be in jail
