Alcaraz founded out now. He now has to adapt and change his game

Its one slam, they're both going to be sharing them all for a long time

I've not watched a tennis final since the nadal and feder era, I'll start getting back into it now.

Next is us open. Is that still shown on sky sports?

Alcaraz just faded from the third set, but an excellent performance from Sinner. Congrats to him.

Is there a third tennis player that could ruin the spoils?

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Sinner played so well. Completely outplayed Alcaraz.

yes

 

[bingham67]

Problem with Alcaraz is he has big lapses in concentration and it was noted during this tournament.

Congrats to Sinner by far the better player on the day.

 

[jonneymendoza]

Sinner needs a trim

Hmm, I'm not sure about that based on today.

Sinner is far better on hard court, looked significantly better than Carlos today on grass, and the French could have gone either way. I think Carlos has a little work to do to catch up now. Which he may well do. I hope he does.

Decent match, but not a classic. Alcaraz looked like he didn't know what to do with someone who was simply playing better than him. Doesn't happen often I suppose. Sinner the better man on the day.

Now I wished I watched the French one open final as I heard that was a classic

Jack Draper???

Is there a third tennis player that could ruin the spoils?

I think Fonseca is the most likely

 

[Worthy]

Annnnd that’s that for another year (well at least until Sept but time difference). I can’t remember what I did with my spare time before spending it all watching tennis.

Novak most likely. Rest seem miles behind.

Zverev on his day is the 3rd best, he's really good on the ATP tour but just can't seem to take it into a slam. Got to three finals but just can't get his first.

US Open is normally the one that can throw up odd winners but that's rare now

refreshing to see someone new win again, only 5 men had won it since 2003

Do you watch any of the atp finals?

They tend to happen every month don't they?

There random 250 and 500 events happening all the time, can’t say i’ve ever watched them apart from Queens.

Next 1000 event is the NA swing, starting with Canadian open then Cinci to lead into the US.

After that you’ve only got the Shanghai/Paris then ATP finals.

Imagine what the outcome might have been had Dimitrov not gotten injured and gifted Sinner the QF, not to mention Sinner had lost two consecutive sets in that match and looked like he might have gone out of the championship if it had carried on.

Or, if he actually got a ban that he deserved for failing two drugs tests…

Rather than some cop out so the world number 1 gets to play in the FO and Wim.
