Adriano Panatta warns Jannik Sinner about Carlos Alcaraz
Adriano Panatta was impressed by Carlos Alcaraz, whom he saw live in Monte Carlo in all his strength. The Spanish tennis player has won the tournament in the Principality for the first time, and is back as number two in the world: “Carlos is clearly the strongest of all on a technical level” proclaimed Panatta.
The’former Italian tennis player to La Domenica Sportiva has no doubts about what he saw on the court: “No one is like him, in today”s tennis, he makes extraordinary shots that you simply cannot do, just like Federer did”.
“His problem is that he is not as continuous as Jannik Sinner, who in fact is No. 1 in the ATP rankings despite being stationary since February”, continued Panatta, who then praised Lorenzo Musetti for his growth.
“Lorenzo had a great tournament in Monte Carlo, he has improved a lot, he has changed as a player. He now handles the match and the progress of the match much better, he knows how to accelerate when there is a need to do so and be more humble when there is a need to suffer. He is no longer just the player who had extraordinary shots but ends in themselves. By now Musetti is of a different caliber and in fact he is about to enter the top 10”.
