Jannik Sinner away: Paolo Bertolucci ruthless on Carlos Alcaraz

Carlos Alcaraz wants Jannik Sinner’s throne but it won’t be at all easy for him to succeed in getting back to world number one: Paolo Bertolucci on Sky sent a clear message to the Spaniard, who at the Masters 1000 in Paris-Bercy failed to take advantage of Jannik Sinner’s forfeit and was immediately eliminated.

"Carlos said that in Paris he gave the most of what he can è offer now. If the level è that in Turin as well, he will have a big problem to solve… In two weeks a lot can change, but of course against Humbert in Bercy he played his worst match of the year’qot;, are the words of the'former Italian tennis player.

"His ambitions are clear: Alcaraz wants the Sinner throne, not content to be number two or number three. È obvious that he can never settle but è caged in this very spectacular and overflowing game of his that works only when he is well".

According to Bertolucci, Alcaraz’s bubbly game paradoxically can è become a limitation: "If he spins a thousand è it is impossible to beat him, but he has some ups and downs that are still too evident. When he stutters it becomes a problem for him and if you want to become number one in the world this you cannot afford".
