5 BP saved might cost Jannik

Yeah hes tired !! He played a lot more than the Canadian in the last 10 days

 

[Move]

Satannik is tired and its showing

What stupid name calling is this, btw? Very childish

 

[Move]

Bahrami would have made the shot !

 

[rUDin 21]

FAA changed his serve motion?
When?

 

[Move]

Its over

 

[tennis_pro]

ur coping is pretty funny

The truth hurts, right?

The master mug beater who can't even do it clean and has to dope to beat guys like Shelton and de Minaur.

 

[Move]

FLAWLESS TB !! Congrats Jannik !

 

[Move]

Felix should be proud, he played a very good match.
But now goes to Metz, because Lore goes to Athens

 

[TheAssassin]

And the Parisian crowd wept. Andiamo!

Very good match. There wasn't much to separate between them.

 

[Dilexson]

Stoic celebration from Sinner as usual lol
Match was worth a watch. FAA had a letdown in that TB but loved the gutsy fight in both sets.

This event really has gotten a serious glow-up from moving into this building. Second biggest Centre Court in the game now, I think.

 

[Hitman]

Sinner too good in the end. Back to world number one.

The player entrance for the final was the best ever imo

3-2 head to head against FAA. Now to reverse Tsitsipas and Alcaraz

90% win rate as well.

 

[Dilexson]

Sinner taught his bench to applaud synchronous after his Shelton match

That nonchalant gait is funny AF lol

For all his improvements recently, FAA has gone 0-3 against Sinner since August.

Yes, you are correct, it is second biggest.

Not really surprising, I made a prediction after he last lost to FAA in Cincy in 2022 that he would never beat Sinner again, let’s see how it goes

 

[TheAssassin]

The French can't show off anything more recent so let's play Noah's highlight reels. Get on with it lol...

Sinner wasn't even at his best here. You could see he was feeling it a bit, but still, it was a clean match from him. FAA I don't think can play much better, Sinner is just a better player. Only Alcaraz is on his level, everyone else is chasing.

 

[Fabrivitx]

Guys this match was really good and Felix played a really good fighting match against Satannik(ATG), congratulations to the border italian austrian conquest.

FAA really surprised me with his backhand today, but I noticed that the speed off both wings were way lower than normal (for Sinner) that is. But yes, FAA pretty much played at his ceiling while I felt Sinner didn’t, albeit I think he served really well today

 

[dking68]

@Hitman and if IIRC, Sinner actually had 2 match points in his match against FAA in Cincy and actually got breadsticked in the deciding set, and I remember how emotional Sinner was after the loss- he cried off the court, which is why I made the prediction

 

[Fabrivitx]

Sinner like every ATG played the most important point better than anybody today. Congratulazioni

 

[Krish0608]

Alcaraz better come to play at Turin. Gandalf the White needs to ascend against this Saruman.

Felix played a good match, I think he did as good as he can. But Sinner despite not playing his best, still straight set him in the end. But Felix isn't alone in this, everyone outside of Alcaraz are a clear level below Sinner, even when he is not playing his A game.

I see the Sinner pre Beijing 2023 as a different player than the one that arrived in Beijing 2023.

Indeed that was one of the most painful losses in his career. Having 2 match points the end up getting wiped away in the deciding set is truly heartbreaking

Indoors is Sinners turf. Not one soul will trouble him, especially at home

 

[tudwell]

Sinner could beat PETE’s 6 consecutive year-end no. 1 finishes. Carlos just isn’t consistent enough to keep pace, even in his most consistent year yet.

You really think so? I think he could break the record for the most ATP finals titles

How in the world Tipsy has an winning record against Sinner

 

[tudwell]

Just has to stay healthy. And not get any more doping bans. He’s just too efficient. It’ll be like Nadal vs. Djokovic and Federer in terms of time at number one – at best. Probably a lot fewer weeks at number one than that for Carlos, actually.

I think Pete stopped shouting about 6 ye 1 ..after novak bested him, though not consecutive.


Sinner is less likely to get no. 1 this year. Unless alcaraz messes up badly. Otherwise nobody beats alcaraz in round robin and sinner will be in other group

I like his chances of equaling or surpassing the ATP finals record of 7 titles

Sinner didnt bring his A+ game, but that had to be his A game at least. His forehand was on fire as the stats showed.

This was close and almost everyone was expecting a blowout.

 

[NYTennisfan]

For all his improvements recently, FAA has gone 0-3 against Sinner since August.

That's not an indictment of FAA, he just doesn't have the talent to ever bother Sinner too much outside of making matches merely competitive if FAA is on his A game.
It's a boring tour now, nobody is remotely close to Sinner or Alcaraz now. The only time there's an upset is when Alcaraz decides to not take a match seriously, Sinner just simply terminates everybody outside of Alcaraz.

 

[Hitman]

I wouldn't say that is his A game personally, B+ yes IMO.

Alcaraz has a losing record in Turin. Last year he got breadsticked by Ruud of all people. Even if he matches his 2023 result (2-1 in RR, loss in the semis) he’ll finish the year at number two.

I mean it’s in his control, obviously, but given form and conditions, etc, it’s gotta be at least 60-40 that Jannik ends the year number one. Probably more like 70-30.

Yeah, it's pretty much locked in for Sinner. Sinner is determined to have YE#1, nobody is even close to him on indoor hard courts and Alcaraz has phoned it in for 2025. Turin is a foregone conclusion. Alcaraz likely doesn't make it out of the Round Robin.

And had Sinner played the 3 months he missed, it wouldn’t be a contest. Sinner would’ve been outright number 1. Would’ve won Dubai, Sunshine double + Madrid IMO

 

[tudwell]

Very possible.

I think there’s a very, very real chance that Sinner goes down as the hard court GOAT. Which is nuts, considering just how far ahead of everyone Federer and Djokovic have seemed for so long now. Health is probably the biggest obstacle. Sinner seems a bit more brittle than Federer and post-2011 Novak.

 

[tudwell]

True. I mean I don’t feel bad for him that he missed those months. His own physio rubbed him down with a banned substance – he’s lucky he didn’t get two years. But next year the gap in points will probably be a lot wider.

I understand you. It is basically the Sinner-Alcaraz show at the moment.

Its going to take something very special in 2026 to change that. They are going to devour the big titles between them unless someone can step up.

I don’t like the USO court conditions for him, or at least how they played this year. It was very high bouncing. Let’s see if they make any changes. If it keeps the same bounce as it had this year, he will lose a few finals to Alcaraz, but if it’s low bouncing, he pounces IMO. Think AO and Wimbledon will be his 2 best slams

I have him pegged for 2 or 3 slams + 4 masters + WTF for 2026

 

[Jonas78]

I wouldn't say that is his A game personally, B+ yes IMO.

With just 50% convertion the last set could be 6-2.

 

[Winners or Errors]

Some of that has to do with the guy on the other side of the net…

 

[Hitman]

With just 50% convertion the last set could be 6-2.

Yep. It wasn't A game from Sinner, we've all seen enough from him to know what his baseline level looks like, and what he does when he switches it on into A game, let alone A plus.
