Wimbledon, Mats Wilander makes his prediction about Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz
Mats Wilander returns to comment on the golden rivalry between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner just days before the start of Wimbledon. According to the former Swedish tennis player, Alcaraz è slightly favored for the final victory but Azzurro isn't far behind: "I think Alcaraz is most likely the favorite for what è happened last year by beating Novak Djokovic in five sets in the final", he told Eurosport.
"I think he has already proved his worth to himself, to all the other players" and to the rest of the world after the clay court season, the victory at Roland Garros shows his strength and it" very likely that he" is" slightly favored".
But Wilander warned about the current number one on the planet, Sinner: "He's already made it to the semifinals at Wimbledon, won in Halle and believes more and more in himself. Going forward it will be very difficult to figure out who will be the favorite between Alcaraz and Sinner in any tournament, because I think what they have shown us so far in their careers è that if they are healthy and in optimal form we should put them as favorites in almost every tournament in the future".
"Obviously Novak Djokovic è still theè out and when è healthy è one of the mostù dangerous. But if we compare these two with the rest of the world … they will be the favorite if they show up and play, even at Wimbledon".
