“I love this rivalry. I think it’s great for tennis, for us. Each time we are playing, I have the impression that the level is very high. I do not have the impression, to be honest, that we see this level so often on the circuit. And it becomes better and better. We are building a huge rivalry because we play in the final of the Great Chelems, Masters 1,000, Best Tournaments.
Sensitive boy but also with a great competitive spirit, the native of El Palmar wants to use this new overwhelming rivalry for other players, Alcaraz and Sinner won the last seven great chelems, to improve: “I am grateful for this situation because it makes me want to be 100 % at each training, every day, the desire to be better. The level I have to reach and maintain if I want to beat Jannik is very high. So thank you for that. “
Hoping that this speech remains identical if during the next two adults (US Open and Australian Open), Jannik Sinner confirms his supremacy on hard. Because as well after his defeat in the final of the Paris Olympic Games as after Melbourne, this season, Alcaraz has known, mentally, soft blows: “To be honest, it is a different feeling. Last year, I really felt bad after the Olympic Game final. It was very, very difficult to accept defeat. But I learned from that. There, I am no longer in the state of mind to accept what has just happened to me. Ok, I lost a Grand Colem final, but I am proud to have arrived until this final. I want to focus on the positive and forget the negative. “
This may be proof of new maturity …
A disaster for female tennis …
