Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner dominate the ATP tour
They were already making great strides and the expectations they had about them were enormous, two tennis players who have ratified all the forecasts so far in 2024, a year in which they have dominated the biggest tournaments.
Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner dominate the ATP tour, the Spanish was already number one in the world for 36 weeks, while the Italian is the current leader of the ATP classification.
Carlos Alcaraz secured his third Grand Slam title
Speaking on the latest edition of his podcast, former ATP ace Andy Roddick talked about Carlos Alcaraz: “Alcaraz still makes way more errors than prime Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic, way more unforced errors. But most of the errors are on his terms.
He’s trying to do something. He might miss a forehand wildly, but you’re going, ‘That was probably the right shot. He just missed it’.”
Alcaraz is preparing for the grass season, which last year saw him protagonist of an extraordinary ride from 12 consecutive victories, which allowed him to win trophies at the Queen’s Club and Wimbledon.
“I have more bank games on grass and now, thanks to the great success of last year at Queen’s and Wimbledon, I know a bit about playing and I understand the game on grass a little bit. I’m more mature when I play on this surface.
In the first workouts I did here, my movements were not as good as last year, but it’s a slow process, so I have to be very focused on every workout and every game,” said Alcaraz.
The Roland Garros champion keeps a triumphant pace in a year in which he regains his physique, tennis and his confidence to also triumph in the Master 1000 of Indian Wells, battling at the top of the ranking with the best tennis player of the moment, Jannik Sinner.
The tennis player directed by Juan Carlos Ferrero has occupied one of the first two positions for 87 weeks, excluding a period of six weeks between July and August 2022, and seven weeks between April and May of this year; another amazing statistic of the native of El Palmar.
