Half of the decade left to be played out but I have a hard time imagining it will be any other rivalry that will top this in in the 2020s. They have played 10 times with 6-4 in the H2H to Alcaraz, with the Grand Slam matches H2H being 2-1 to Alcaraz so far.
Sinner's looking as the better player at the moment though and should they meet in the AO final he'd likely be the favorite.
The only other rivalry that can challenge is Alcaraz vs Djokovic considering their Wimbledon finals and Olympics finals. But Djokovic is on the way out. When I all is said and done it won't be this rivalry that is the 2020s best one.
Of course other players might rise like Fonseca but it will take time. Alcaraz vs Sinner is the new Federer vs Nadal rivalry in tennis, especially considering their contrasting styles of play (of course Fed vs Nadal was extreme).
What do you guys think: How memorable will this rivalry be - one of the truly great ones? Will we see them already in the AO Final?
