Rafael Nadal sentences on Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz.

During an’interview given to the microphones of the “Gazzetta dello Sport”, Rafael Nadal, among other topics discussed, returned to the rivalry between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, even indulging in a prediction about the long-term development of the confrontation between the two.

“Sinner has already won 3 Slams, in the last two years he has made an incredible leap in his career, he has become a very confident and solid player with incredible potential. It seems that Jannik and Carlos, however, are at a higher level than the others and that, if they are spared from injuries, they will be fighting for major titles for a long time” debuted the’former Spanish tennis player.

“I think that for a country that loves tennis like Italy, having a player like Sinner is a due act. The Italian Federation has done a great job, because there is not only Jannik, but also Musetti, Berrettini and Cobolli. There’s a great generation of young and talented Italian players, something you get with resources and work” added the 22-time Slam champion.

“New level players will always appear, but Jannik and Carlos at the moment have an edge over the others, they seem to be at a higher level and have been in the last two years, but we will see, the future is unpredictable. The beauty and greatness of the sport is related to its unpredictability, but it is clear that these are two special players who will mark an’era” Rafael Nadal concluded.
