Sinner\u2019s father, he didn\u2019t even come to watch the Roland Garros final because he was working. Alcaraz\u2019s mother and father, they are the two nicest people I\u2019ve ever met in my life, and they are so nice. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can see Alcaraz is playing like a little kid in the park, and he\u2019s enjoying. He\u2019s laughing. It\u2019s beautiful to watch. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cJannik is more like Novak. He\u2019s upgraded Novak, and they play similar. With Sinner, you are done. Alcaraz plays with you, you know, it can go out and come back. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut their environment is normal. Tennis is a process. You never know when good things are gonna happen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd that\u2019s why in my opinion, these two guys, they\u2019re gonna be one and two for the next 10 years, maybe 15, I don\u2019t know who\u2019s gonna be one, who\u2019s gonna be two, who\u2019s going to win more Grand Slams.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This came just after <a href=\"https:\/\/tennishead.net\/goran-ivanisevic-says-whether-he-thinks-stefanos-tsitsipas-will-ever-make-it-back-into-the-top-ten\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ivanisevic made a prediction about Stefanos Tsitsipas\u2019 future<\/a>, having addressed the controversy surrounding his comments about the Greek player.<\/p>\n<p>Jannik Sinner will be hoping to defend his US Open title<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tennishead.net\/tennis\/jannik-sinner\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jannik Sinner<\/a> will be hopeful that, despite the disaster that was the Cincinnati Open final, he can successfully defend his title in New York this year.<\/p>\n<p>After all, he did so in Melbourne with minimal fuss, brushing aside the competition on his favoured surface.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2170869215-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Jannik Sinner of Italy celebrates with the winners trophy after defeating Taylor Fritz of the United States to win the Men's Singles Final on Day Fourteen of the 2024 US Open at USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center on September 08, 2024 in the Flushing neighborhood of the Queens borough of New York City.\" class=\"wp-image-320189\" \/>Photo by Matthew Stockman\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>However, there are fresh question marks over his current level, having played just one event since winning Wimbledon, and being forced to retire with an illness against <a href=\"https:\/\/tennishead.net\/tag\/carlos-alcaraz\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Carlos Alcaraz<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It would be unwise to bet against the undisputed best hard-court player on the planet right now, but there is certainly far less confidence over his US Open chances now than there was a week ago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner are so far ahead of the chasing pack on the ATP Tour.
