alcaraz

Federer is seen by most as the greatest shotmaker tennis has ever had, especially when it comes to variety, but Alcaraz is making his case with some ridiculous shots of his own. He's only 22 and already has a career highlight reel that is... legendary. Who is the best shotmaker you have ever...

Hey everyone - quick question for tennis fans I’m working with a few pro tennis players on a new way for fans to engage with their favourite athletes (beyond just following on social). Before we go further, I’m running a short anonymous survey to get honest fan input. If you have 2–3 minutes...

Sinner has won an absurd 93.3% on hard courts since the start of 2024 and Alcaraz has won 83.1% on hard in the same time frame, but in that time, Alcaraz is 3-1 against Sinner on hard, 4-1 if you count the retirement at Cincinnati. Is Alcaraz just a poor matchup for Sinner similar to how Nadal...

As we already know, Alcaraz and Sinner have very different records in five setters but I’m seeing many posters and analysts dismiss by claiming that Sinner doesn’t let himself dragged that often into five-setters and when he is, he is usually in trouble so that’s why he has a worse record than...

ATP H2H: 5-0 for Carlito Their first match against each other at the Grand Slams. One of them will advance to the SF at AO for the first time in his career, and for de Minaur it would even be his first advance into SF at a Grand Slams. Carlito is the big favorite in the match, but can Alex...

Novak has obviously been the most consistent of the Big3 across the three surfaces, winning 54.2% of total points over his long career on the 'weakest' surface clay. 54.3% on grass and 54.7% on HC complete the mix. Federer achieved 53.5% on it, while getting 54.3% on HC and 54.6% on grass...

This is just a rough, relative overview on how much they were winning over what rally length, courtesy of Tennis Abstract. Sample sizes and quality differs a bit, with Nadal having surprisingly few fully charted matches, which might work against him. See the low absolute number of points...

Jannik Sinner beat Carlos Alcaraz 7-6(4), 7-5 in the Year End Championship final, 2025 on indoor hard court in Turin, Italy Sinner was the defending champion and won the event without losing a match. Both players came through their round robin groups with 3-0 record. Earlier, by reaching the...

2024 IW SF, loss - overall 62.2% 1st serve in, which is fine, but only 53.3% in the third set, where he got rekt 6-2. Out of the 11 sets Sinner played in the tournament, that was his second worst figure (the worst was a diabolical 35.7% in the second set against Lehecka, which didn't matter...

A nice upload from Tennis TV, providing a great closer look into both of these guys' speed and power. Enjoy, Carrot Army.

Given that hardcourt was Rafa's weakest surface and Carlos had so much early success, it's just matter of little time to see some air between both. Jannik has overtaken the Mallorcan quite some time ago. The return numbers of Carlitos are superb while is serve plus game is still improving...

So Sinner has now won six consecutive matches against top tenners without dropping serve: Zverev & FAA in Paris, then FAA, Zverev, Shelton & ADM at the YEC. However, he might have to face Alcaraz in the final, who's been owning him 7-1 H2H over the last two seasons. Indoor hard should supposedly...

obviously, Djokovic could still win a 25th, but realistically, it isn't likely, do you think that if Wimbledon was not cancelled for the pandemic In 2020, that Djokovic could have gotten to 25 slams?

As a newer tennis fan, just getting into tennis, I am wondering how you guys think Alcaraz and Sinner would fair against some of these single or few times slam winners who were outshined by Murray and the big 3.

I guess most of you guys here were around to watch the Djokovic vs Nadal final in Rome 2011. It was an epic battle even though it was a straight sets victory for Djokovic and the level was ridiculous. But how does it compare to the 2025 Rome finalists Alcaraz's and Sinner's level? Obviously the...

Carlos Alcaraz beat Jannik Sinner 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 in the US Open final, 2025 on hard court It was Alcaraz’ second title at the event. Sinner was the defending champion. It was Alcaraz’ second Slam title of the season after the French Open. Sinner had won Australian Open and Wimbledon. It was...

Following Alcaraz defeat in the first round of the Rolex Paris Masters, the chance he finishes number 1 in the world after his extraordinary season are now much lower. If Sinner wins Paris and Turin without losing a match (possible given his indoor level), Carlos would need to win either : - 3...

I got Nadal in a close 4, Alcaraz in 5 on grass and hard court

For me, i really like Taylor Fritz's racket he used at this years US Open.

Carlos Alcaraz has won the French Open, U.S. Open, and Wimbledon, multiple times, but always seems to struggle aty the Austrailian Open. For reference, Nadal was 24 when he completed the Career grand slam at the 2010 US Open. Carlos Alcaraz would need to win one of the next two Austrailian...

I’m just so confused! I’ve heard higher tension improves feel and even arm fatigue and then I’ve heard the exact opposite. Range seems to b 40-55bls - most opting for about 52bls Poly’s but only for 20hrs max Basically need to buy a restring machine For feel, durability is that about...

When will somebody serve 175 mph, for reference the fastest ever is 163 mph at a challenger match, the fastest ATP serve ever is 157 by John Isner and Giovanni Mpteshi Perricard hit one 153 mph at Wimbledon this year. I think its never happening.

Who will it be

I got both of em reaching 20

Carlos Alcaraz beat Jannik Sinner 5-0 retired in the Cincinnati final, 2025 on hard court It was Alcaraz’ first title at the event. Sinner had been the defending champion. The two had recently played the Wimbledon final (Sinner winning) and would soon after play the US Open final (Alcaraz...

As we know, we’ve just seen a guy put in a slam performance which - at least on paper - is one for the ages, featuring the following Complete domination of the world number 1, the reigning AO, USO, ATP finals and Wimbledon champion Limited Sinner to 69% 1st serve points won, 44% overall points...

Today's USO final wasn't the closest match ever, and indeed, there were no real tight sets among the four. No tiebreakers, no fifth set. And I'm not about to predict how many slams they will win individually or collectively. What I will say is that when I watch them head-to-head, I know that...

Who’s more impressive, Sinner or Alcaraz? Sinner using young Nole as the benchmark, or Alcaraz using young Rafa as the benchmark? Closer below, or further above, is considered more impressive. Please set bias aside and do the research if you’re a true tennis fan.
