Jannik Sinner: Hubert Hurkacz’s statement on Azure causes discussion

Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz play a higher level of tennis than the big four Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray, Rafael Nadal, and Roger Federer: that&#8217s Hubert Hurkacz&#8217s bombastic statement about the two current world tennis stars, a statement that is causing social discussion.

Hurkacz has faced in his career both the two phenomena of the new generation and the great legends of the past. “I feel that the level is growing every year and, of course, we can say that it is better than ten years ago”.

“That doesn&#8220t mean that Roger, Rafa, Novak and Andy couldn”t get where we are now,” he pointed out in an interview with Tennis365. “They have improved every year and raised the bar, so if they played now, they would probably still be improving”.

“But what we can say is that Jannik and Carlos are playing at an incredible level now, and it&#8217s up to all of us to work hard to keep up with them. It’s why I wake up every morning and work so hard to try to reach those levels”. Alcaraz and Sinner have won the last seven Grand Slam tournaments.
