Alcaraz hasn't been sharp in a major since Wimbledon of 2024. If I had to take one of these 2 today who ends up with more slams I think it's Sinner. He's just more technical. Alcaraz has bigger variations in his levels. It should be a great rivalry for years to come. I hope I'm wrong btw and Alcaraz ends up the superior player
Tennis needed this to set the stage for post big 3 era. Individual sports are better when there's a few guys at Top that dominate and build a rivalry
And they can set all kinds of records unless a 3rd challenger comes along like Novak was to Nadal and Federer.
Just imagine the grand slam count for Federer and Nadal if Novak didn’t show up.
I hope another player rises to the top to make it even more interesting. This may be too strong of a take perhaps but I don’t want to watch the same 2 guys in every final. That gets to be boring after couple years.
Unfortunately, I mostly had to watch the final with no volume. I loved Agassi throughout the tournament though.
Other players are going to have the same problem everyone had during the Big 3 era. You might beat Sinner, or Alcaraz on a great day, but to win a grand slam, you'll probably have to go through both of them.
It'll be interesting to see if anyone else emerges as a contender. I can't see the rest of the world accepting Sinner and Alcaraz winning all the grand slams the next 10 years. Who's everyone's pick to be the next winner outside of those two? Fils, Mensik and Fonseca appear to be the best young talent. My pick is Jack Draper. He's come a long way in the last 12 months and is a lot closer than those other guys right now.
