Feliciano Lopez no-holds-barred over Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz
Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz: the two rising stars of world tennis have dominated the first three months of 2024, and more successes and challenges between the two arch-rivals are expected. Former Spanish tennis player Feliciano Lopez in an interview with EFE examined the impact on tennis of the rise of the two young champions, comparing it to that of the Big Three.
"When I talk to people and tell them that Andre Agassi won eight Grand Slams and they say "just?", well, that è the perception of people who don't know the world of tennis or sports. When a guy comes along and wins 22 Slams, that detracts a lot from what è happened before. And even that è unfair".
"We have to enhance what is there,è without making comparisons with the past. We have to enjoy the present, something out of the ordinary like Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz. I think we have been very lucky with the two of them, taking into account that we come from Federer, Nadal, Djokovic, Andy Murray…", are the words reported by tennisworlditalia.
