Mats Wilander may be exaggerating about Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz.
Mats Wilander perhaps exaggerates about Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz
During an appearance at the microphones of "Eurosport", former Swedish tennis player Mats Wilander è returned to the extraordinary Beijing final between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, which è ended in favor of the Spaniard after a marathon over three hours. The sports commentator, in addition, spared no surprising words in describing the rivalry between the South Tyrolean and the Murcian and their current state of form.
"In my opinion the matches between Sinner and Alcaraz are one of the best events ever, every single time they create suspense and entertainment. Their challenges can go in any direction at any time. There are changes of pace as in any other tennis match, but they don't last as long" began the former Swedish tennis player.
"They are following in the footsteps of the Big Three in terms of level of play. I hope Roger, Novak and Rafa are not listening, but in terms of their game, when Jannik and Carlos are at their best, è it is impossible that anyone has ever played better tennis than them" added the Vaxjo native.
"Alcaraz è still a diamond in the rough, while Sinner è became more complete, playing with more variety, trying the short ball, sometimes going to the net. During their matches surprises come from both sides" concluded Mats Wilander.
