With Alcaraz we are very good friends and I hope that this rivalry will last as long as possible and we will see what happens in the future" these are the statements of Jannik Sinner.
"I try to do my best every day. I will doè everything so thatè our rivalry lasts and is always better. I’m happy that he’s in the circuit becauseé he always pushes me to do better, I’m happy to share the field with him" this, on the other hand, is the thought of Carlos Alcaraz.
