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

[Bud]

Deplorable first set from Carlitos

 

[Genious at Work]

I sure didn't see this one coming. Crazy result so far. Sinner giving Alcaraz a breadstick?

 

[Sampras-Bruguera 1993]

He’s 19 you clown lol

And???? … 17-19 year olds use to win slams.LOL. This overrated kid isn’t even close

 

[ACE of Hearts]

This is just a bad performance from alcaraz.

 

[mike danny]

Deplorable first set from Carlitos

And the bad times haven't ended yet.

 

[NoleFam]

Carlos needs to stop the bleeding now. If not, this could go quickly.

 

[Bpob28]

Is Sinner playing amazingly or Alacaraz being subpar? Can only see live score

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

That's what you can resort to. Calling Names and insulting other TTW posters.
Please keep the discussion on Tennis. Stop with these innuendo and insults.

Yes - Carlos is 19. He will get better and may win a lot of slams. But right now, we don't know that, and people say he is ATG or favorite vs Novak - have NO BASIS.

I agree. People just need to calm on the Carlos hype. In fact it won’t help the young kid with the media and many people expecting to much.

 

[RF-18]

Alcaraz has no shot tolerance at all.

And another crazy return by Sinner.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

And! 17-19 year olds use to win slams.LOL. This overrated kid isn’t even close

What did the other greats do at 19 besides nadal?

 

[ibbi]

“Best young player in 20 years” blah blah BS. Most overrated for sure. Hewitt was better than this dude

When Lleyton Hewitt was 19 he got knocked out of Wimbledon in the first round.

 

[Indigo]

Alcaraz in 5!

 

[zuluzazu]

LOL the QF with Novak will be bloodbath. Sinner will think why did he choose to play tennis

 

[Flash777]

Sinner making absolutely great returns here almost Djoko like at the feet of Carlos.

He is a better returner than Alcaraz.

 

[ojo rojo]

Carlos is getting seriously outplayed here

 

[Carax]

What a disaster by Alcaraz. Sinner's ROS is sublime today.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Alcaraz needs to calm down and accept longer rallies

 

[dapchai]

Trouble time for Sinner.

I’m not watching any tennis sadly, had to leave for the beach a bit earlier today. Is Alcaraz just playing **** or is this a masterclass from Sinner?

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Sick angle from Sinner there

 

[Mivic]

This is actually seriously impressive by Sinner so far as braindead as Alcaraz is playing

 

[TennisFan3]

How can you compare Nadal and Djokovic with Alcaraz? Even at 19 - Nadal would NEVER spray the ball over the place. Same for Novak.
Alcaraz CANNOT hit 3-4 forehands back to back WITHOUT making errors.
He also gets RATTLED too easily. He is just overwhelmed by the power of Sinner. He is RUSHING, without thinking. I NEVER saw Novak/Nadal making errors like this even when they were young.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

Amazing movement from sinner. Wow!

 

[ibbi]

SINNER WITH THE DROPSHOT RETRIEVAL! NOW IT REALLY IS TROUBLE!

 

[RF-18]

What in the world was that!!

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Sinner GOATING at the moment

 

[NeutralFan]

Carlos need to learn rally and point construction, he just can't hit winners on every point. He needs to move sinner and exploit his movement.

 

[NoleFam]

Oh my gosh. How did he make that?

 

[StrongRule]

LOL, and some used Alcaraz to hype Djokovic's draw?

Sinner looks really sharp today. Alcaraz not looking all that bad, but maybe trying to force it sometimes by trying to hit too big.

Sinner returning very well in particular.

 

[TennisFan3]

This is actually seriously impressive by Sinner as braindead as Alcaraz is playing

Expect him to lay an egg vs Novak. Sinner will also start spraying errors when the ball is coming back all the time.
It's sad but 35-36 years OLD players are 3x better than this INSIPID next gen.

 

[TennisFan3]

LOL, and some used Alcaraz to hype Djokovic's draw?

Actually @Kralingen said Novak won't even win sets vs Alcaraz. LOL.

 

[killerboss]

I've got nothing against Alcaraz but I find his "aggressive play" overrated. He seems like another grinder to me.

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

First chance for young Spainard

 

[dapchai]

First BP for Carlitos

 

[ACE of Hearts]

This kid is playing like ****.

 

[MiamiWeekendWarrior]

ESPN showing the Tiafoe/Goffin match. Last time they cut to the Alcaraz match Sinner had won the first set 6-1. Doesn't sound good for Carlitos.

Tiafoe not having a great time either. 2 sets all. Goffin is hitting the snot out of the ball.

 

[Flash777]

Sinner surviving despite ****ty 1st Serves

 

[NoleFam]

Alcaraz to break now since Sinner can't find a 1st serve.

 

[TennisFan3]

I've got nothing against Alcaraz but I find his "aggressive play" overrated. He seems like another grinder to me.

He just isn't consistent enough. Sprays all over the place. Doesn't have the shot tolerance of ATGs.

 

[ACE of Hearts]

Sinner is doing nothing special. He’s just more steady.

 

[Dominic & Andrey]

Crazy depth from Sinner

 

[MiamiWeekendWarrior]

I've said it a million times, as have other people here, the NextGen absolutely sucks.

 

[dapchai]

Danger time for Sinner.

 

[InsideOut900]

And???? … 17-19 year olds use to win slams.LOL. This overrated kid isn’t even close

Who was the last 19 years old to even make a Wimbledon semi, lol?
Neither Sampras, nor Big 3 or Murray, Hewitt, Roddick did for instance.

 

[bluetrain4]

Sinner looks like he's saying "who's the hot young player?" Though Sinner had plenty of opportunities to establish himself as such but has come up short in Slams.

Alcaraz is playing pathetic Sir. Just spraying all over the place. He looks RATTLED by the power of Sinner.
Very unimpressive display from the Spanish teen sensation. I'm very disappointed. And you would have been to. Good on you, that you're at the beach. Not missing much..

 

[JaxTeller]

Sinner peaking.. will knock out Novak and bend to nadal in the final..

 

[Djokovic_is_the_best#1]

A lot people got carried away thinking Alcatraz is the new Nadal. He certainly isn’t while he’s still very good.

 

[I Am Finnish]

@Lleytonstation prepares for the anyone but tiny carlos party
