Jannik Sinner explains how he sent Carlos Alcaraz into crisis

New world number four Jannik Sinner showed all his satisfaction after his victory over Carlos Alcaraz that allowed him to equal Adriano Panatta’s record.

"Every match against Alcaraz è very tough, I think we always show each other great respect, we always play our best, and when we play each other, we are always at the limit of our potential.

"Today I think I respected my game plan the best I could,” explained the tennis player from San Candido. “I tried to be as aggressive as possible, not to give him too much time to play the way he knows how to play, and in the end " it went well. Today I played a little bit’ better in the important moments. In the second set he had a lot of chances, but I managed to stay focused all the time. The first set, on the other hand, è was a little bit; more hectic, I tried to stay lì mentally and I succeeded".

Now the tabù Daniil Medvedev, who has always beaten him: "Tomorrow he will have another very tough challenge, against an opponent I have never beaten. Hopefully it will be the right time!".
