Jannik Sinner – Carlos Alcaraz: Richard Gasquet unabashedly

Richard Gasquet praised Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, the stars of a great 2024: the two young men shared Grand Slam tournaments, and set the tone for an intriguing rivalry&that will see them face each other several times in the future. "Carlos Alcaraz may become a new Roger Federer. It è was often said, I for one, many years ago: ‘tennis will not be the same without Agassi, without Sampras, without Kuerten’. Then we had instead Federer, Nadal and Djokovic, an’extraordinary era".

Now a new cycle of great champions and great storiesè is just around the corner, according to Gasquet: "Alcaraz, when I see him play, when I see his attitude, his level of play, I find it crazy. When I say this player is going to be a new Federer and Nadal, I have no doubt".

But the transalpine tennis player also congratulated Jannik Sinner, who won his first two career Slam titles in 2024 and finished dominating the ATP ranking.

"Sinner is also playing very, very well. È a great player, they will be the two best in the world in the next fifteen years. They have an incredible level, they play very fast, they are raising the level of tennis" even more.
