Jannik Sinner<\/a> is way too good for everyone save Carlos Alcaraz, the group matches and semi-finals necessary for competitive integrity but necessarily leading us to the latest chapter in what is already one of the great sporting rivalries.<\/p>\nBefore losing the US Open final, Sinner was 27-0 playing hard court grand slam matches while, on indoor hards, he has won 26 matches in a row, undefeated since the 2023 Davis Cup. Good luck to the rest of the field.<\/p>\n
Felix Auger-Aliassime, though, has more of a chance than most. His indoor record this year is 15-3, taking in tournament wins in Montpellier and Brussels and, just last week, he pushed Sinner in the Paris Masters final, losing 4-6 (4)6-7. If he\u2019s at it tonight, you never know \u2013 and even if he isn\u2019t, watching an all-time great underlining his status can never be less than compelling.<\/p>\n
Play: 8.30pm local, 7.30pm GMT<\/p>\n
