Alcaraz is 0-2 against Sinner on grass and 0-3 against Djokovic on HC

[Hitman]

Yet he is 2-0 against Djokovic on grass, and 5-2 against Sinner on HC

Head to heads can be quite strange.

 

[mike danny]

The 0-3 against Djokovic is the more damning one.

 

[ppma]

Forget about Djokovic already. He emptied his tank for the OG2024.

 

[mike danny]

I’d also add 1-2 vs Djokovic on clay

This is a wake up call for Alcaraz especially outside of clay. This guy has to develop an efficient serve or he will continue to be dominated outside of clay.

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

It will be be like 0-8 against Sinner on grass before too long. he has no answers for Sinner on grass

 

[MichaelNadal]

Not enough panache today

Yeah, these three altogether have a weird kind of matchup situation.

Relax it’s very early. Sinner won’t be bagging all these slams. Someone else could come into the picture if alcaraz won’t be a challenger. We saw novak enter the picture after fed and nadal.

This is sad as Sinner definitely is not my definition of a beloved Grass player in my books, but to be fair, he was far more aggressive in his transition game than Raz today so congrats to him

 

[The Blond Blur]

What it tells us?

This one is even worse, because Alcaraz made 36-37 Djokovic look better (by results) on the surface than he ever was in his prime.

 

[The_Order]

Yet, we've been hearing for 20 years that all the surfaces are pretty much the same these days...

He was at the net two times more than Alcaraz

It will probably be 4-5 years before someone comes along though. These players aren't improving like they used to and prepared to start snatching slams. And Sinner is entering his peak years here at 24-25 years old

I think so too. Players like Rune, mensik or fils are nowhere near Carlos and Jannik. The only one I can think of that can challenge the two in the near future is Fonseca

So is Alcaraz . We will see how dedicated he is in improving his game.

Problem with Alcaraz is I don't know really know how much better he can get. He may have already maxed out his abilities. He is short so in that sense his serve will always be a liability down the stretch. . He can't control rallies and pound balls all day like Sinner due to the size issue. He has to do so much running around. How long will his body take this before it begins to rebel on him?

Djokovic won his recording breaking 23 slam and 3rd RG, plus Olympic Gold on Alcaraz's watch.

He can get better. His serve is too inconsistent. That 43 percent on first serves in the 3rd set did him in. I don’t think sinner wins thjs match had he lost the 3rd set.

Made all the more impressive by the fact that he has only lost 4 matches on grass, and the only other player that has beaten him at AELTC, has a losing 1-2 record at AELTC against him. Yet against Sinner he is 1/3 & 1/3, never looked in the match both times...And this with Sinner having to bounce back from his own situation with serious question markx because of losing Alcaraz US Open/RG matches from matchpoint up.

Now it's Alcaraz' turn to overturn the questions

The overall field are not involved in this, each respective question...

 

[Hitman]

Forget about Djokovic already. He emptied his tank for the OG2024.

But the AO 2025 loss happened after that.

 

[ppma]

That's what I'm saying. After 2023 US Open he ensured a +2 lead on the slam race. Safe enough even if Rafa made it to win another RG. Then, started to prepare for the olympics as that was the only remaining accomplishment. We all know what happened in the fall of 2023 and and afterwards: Some M1000 and the OG at RG to remark, and there he had to play at 140%. He's done.

Oh, I guess you mean the loss of Carlos against Djokovic. Carlos is going to lose matches here and there against top level opponents and against players ranked lower than top 20 because when his day is off, he is not even close to his shadow when he is connected on court.

In any case, doubt that Djokovic can connect two tough matches (especially in BO5) in the same tournament. Not that the victory against Carlos was that hard. He gifted a lot, as he uses to do. We saw what happened against Zverev in the next match after Carlos'

Add clay stats also for complete picture.
