2022 Wimbledon R16: [5] C. Alcaraz Garfia vs [10] J. Sinner

[Omega_7000]

Let's hope Alcaraz wins for the sake of tennis!

Lol biggest Novak fan like @TennisFan3 voting for Sinner

 

[dking68]

WHat might those technical changes be?

He’s moving around the opponent, not letting the opponent move him around

 

[Beacon Hill]

Actually this is the first time in history that there will be matches on the middle Sunday.

So Djoko/Raz/Norrie/Tiafoe play on Sunday while Nadal's half plays on Monday.

They killed Manic Monday.

Not first time in history, but correct that Manic Monday is done.

 

[Bubcay]

A 6-7 7-5 7-6 win is called destroying?

His statement is pure nonsense. Not even close to destroying. The difference was razor thin...

 

[Halba1]

Jannik is the successor to Novak

U smoke.....hopium?

 

[ewiewp]

Alcaraz plays much more mature game at the moment.
Sinner is more one dimensional in his strategies and shot selections.

But Sinners game has more room to improve and I hope they are developed into a great rivalry.

The nightmare is coming to Joker, of course if a Krajicek part II does not happen before.

 

[UnderratedSlam]

Lemme guess...

Sinner wins then Djokovic gets a W/O in the QF.

100%.

Excellent post.
Sinner won't even win a set vs Novak.

Excellent post.

He has given up on many matches this year, so him winning this would be very bad for the tournament.

Center Court confirmed for this one.

For once, a good decision, Wimbledon.

Egg - Van Rijthoven on C1 I assume?

Nah both of em play CC, this match before Djokovic

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

I just want my Carlitos to win, win, win, win, win!!!!!

 

[Mark Anderson]

i am picking Alcarez to win it all. he is playing that well

He could, but explain to me his match last week against Tiafoe.

 

[I Am Finnish]

May the best propaganda win

Chuck Norrie in shambles

 

[Johnny505]

Lets see how many times Alcaraz feels the need to turn around to his box even when hes facing the other way just to show them his fist pumps and get validation from his team

 

[cloudluc]

Carlitos schooling Jannik in 3

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

I have faith that Carlos will make it through tomorrow with a WIN!

 

[Daniel Andrade]

Let's go alcaraz, vamos hype!

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

So??? Good for him! The resentment towards this amazing player is palpable, the jealousy - I hope he never changes and keeps on doing it forever!

 

[Aabye5]

Looking forward to this one, either way!

 

[Aabye5]

He has given up on many matches this year, so him winning this would be very bad for the tournament.

It would be amazing for the tournament.

 

[TheWizardFromElPalmar]

Easy win for Carlos, facing a guy with a WTA Player body should be easy....3/0

 

[NeutralFan]

Carlos will win easily, Sinner got nothing to hurt him.

 

[ForehandCross]

Sinner will actually be difficult. Alcaraz takes time to load his FH, and Sinner only knows to hit big. S it might be that the pace from Sinner be a little difficult for Alcaraz.

Norrie is in CescFabregas mode, “Its a digrace, its an scandal, its a outrage!”

Now that CC and #1 both have roofs it’s no big deal getting shunted to the Avis court instead of Hertz.

If Norrie was playing someone with a better pedigree than Mrs. Paul’s son Tommy, I’m 100% convinced Sinncaraz is on #1.

 

[Vamos Rafa Nadal]

I am experiencing my usual excitement mixed with anxiety - I of course really really really really want my Carlos to prevail today!

If we do get an Alcaraz - Djokovic QF I can feel confident that Alcaraz can win since he has a win already - doesn't mean he will this time but he can do it! I have faith in my Carlos!

Son, Why your name is vamos Rafa Nadal when you are a Carlos fan or you abandoned Nadal of Carlos?

I still love Rafa! He is my second favorite! If it were possible to just switch my name without having to lose all of my data I would do so but I don't want to have to risk erasing everything and starting all over! But I am a huge fan of both Spanish players! Carlos is my #1, and Rafa is my #2!

It's a good comparison if you think about it, Sinner very similar to young Novak. Great return, abysmal serve, withdraws halfway through big tournaments...

 

[dking68]

Was thinking the same too. And it might be difficult for him to employ drop shots with the pace Sinner is hitting the ball at

 

[prosperned]

Alcaraz will blow Sinner off the court. Sinner is of the same mould as the next gen who’ve failed to dislodge Big3.

Alcaraz however is a future ATG. He will bully Sinner like he did in their first two matches. Scary hours given Alcaraz has improved leaps and bounds since

 

[Kralingen]

Woke up feeling like this will be a pretty emphatic 3-0 from Raz. Prove me and the poll wrong, Jannik!

 

[Sampras-Bruguera 1993]

Sinner lays an egg like always

 

[Aussie Darcy]

Just tuning into watch this match now

 

[NeutralFan]

What a return plus FH winner from Alcaraz.

 

[prosperned]

Alcaraz destroying Sinner’s first serve already loool

 

[Tennis Fan States63]

Alcaraz looking to make an opening statement and get a lead.

 

[prosperned]

Doesn’t get the break after a few errors but Alcaraz returning every serve of Sinner’s like it’s nothing despite being 127mph+

 

[Tennis Fan States63]

Good hold from Sinner after down 0-30.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Alcaraz has to return well against this guy.

 

[prosperned]

Alcaraz has to return well against this guy.

Didn’t give up an unreturned serve that last game despite Sinner’s 5/6 first serves

 

[Sampras-Bruguera 1993]

Sinner can win this match with his power. He just needs to keep the errors down

 

[Tennfan123]

It sounds so fake for Hewitt to be going ‘it’s hard to believe he’s only 19.’ Hewitt achieved a lot at 19, too.

 

[Genious at Work]

Love how Carlos is serving wide and opening the court, then blasting Sinner's return.
