    Is Sinner Dominant… or Just Efficient?

    So I’ve been thinking about this since the AO Semi Sinner’s results over the last year or so have obviously been excellent — no one is disputing that. But when I actually sit down and watch his matches, I’m not sure I see dominance in the traditional sense. What I see, more than anything, is...

    How do you want to engage with Tennis players

    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 and Alcaraz on hard courts

    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...

    Sincaraz and five-setters

    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...

    What gave him the edge?

    Did this rile Novak up? (AO 2026 QF press conference)

    Watch from the timestamp here, this journalist (definitely unintentionally) ended up throwing an insult at Novak by saying that he was 'chasing' Carlos & Sinner. Up until that question, Djokovic's level was nothing special at this year's AO, struggled against BVDZ, was 0-2 down against Musetti...

    Should the Australian Open have broken its heat rule to help Djokovic avoid Sinner?

    Obviously a lot can happen still and both face great opponent but the odds are in favor of a Djokovic-Sinner match in the semifinals. Jannik has dominated the recent H2H in rare fashion and might prove once again a semifinal mountain to big to climb. Last year the only difficult match for the...

    The Goat Of Balance Djokovic versus Sincaraz

    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...

    Sinner has already a higher career dominance ratio on clay than Ruud, Thiem, Tsitsipas, Wawrinka and Zverev...

    I often find it useful to look from time to time at simple stats to confront the eye tests, memories and many biases of this forum - including mine. Needless to say that Stan and Domi have been pushing their percentages a lot lower in recent years, so I went a couple of years back in time...

    Will Jannik Sinner win the Grand Slam in 2026?

    Asked something similar in my top 10 questions, but thought I would highlight this question specifically. In 2025, Jannik Sinner reached the final of all four majors. Can he go two wins further and bag all 4?

    Career winning percentages of the Big3 and Sincaraz compared over various rally lengths

    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...

    Sinner's 1st serve % underperformance against Alcaraz over the last two seasons

    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...

    Alcaraz is about to pass Nadal's career hardcourt strength

    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...

    Sinner made the YEC final without losing serve. Guess how many breaks he will concede in the final?

    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...

    Could Djokovic have got gotten 25 slams if 2020 Wimbledon wouldn't have been cancelled?

    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?

    How do big-3 era players like Wawrinka, Cilic, Del Potro, and Thiem compare to Sinner and Alcaraz.

    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.

    2011 Rome finalists vs 2025 Rome finalists

    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...

    Alcaraz Year End #1 in danger

    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.

    Will Alcaraz become the youngest to acheive the Career grand Slam.

    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...

    When will somebody hit a 175 mph serve.

    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.
