Paolo Bertolucci does not change his mind about Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz

Paolo Bertolucci makes a prediction about Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz

During an interview with the microphones of the "Gazzetta dello Sport", former Italian tennis player Paolo Bertolucci, among other topics, è returned to talk about the first loss of the season in the semifinals in Indian Wells against Carlos Alcaraz. In addition, the Sky Sports commentator took it upon himself to reiterate his feelings about the rivalry between the South Tyrolean and the Spaniard.

"The semifinals in Indian Wells showed that despite the level he has reached, Jannik needs to improve in some aspects of his game, and he would miss it if he didnì for a young man who has to turn 23. An even moreù incisive serve, the ability to oppose with moreù lucidness; tactics to the exasperated top spin that opponents can offer him, a physical growth to be completed definitely. Small details that will make him even moreù complete, competitive and difficult to face for any opponent and on any surface" debuted the'former Italian tennis player.

"The challenges between Sinner and Alcaraz always provide an exceptional technical spectacle, proving that we are really in the presence of two champions with enormous potential and phenomenal qualities. As I have been predicting for a long time, it will be their rivalry that will mark the next decade of tennis, perhaps with the inclusion of Rune or Shelton, but always with Jannik and Carlos as the benchmarks" added the Sky Sports commentator.

"In the absence of Djokovic, seeking motivation that seems a bit watered down, the challenge now shifts to Miami, the second Masters 1000 of the American season. Conditions are different in Florida than in Indian Wells, the courts are faster and the humidity can make the balls heavier and these characteristics may favor Sinner" concluded Paolo Bertolucci.
