Yep. And it was tiebreaker. That is absolutely insane.Sinner has lost one set so far since the start of Indian Wells.

Two sets: one to Machac and one to Bonzi.Sinner has lost one set so far since the start of Indian Wells.
And Nadal lost to Ljubicic and Baghdatis that year. Sinner could easily have a *better* season than Nadal in 2010....IF Alcaraz doesn't come back strong.He's on track to do Nadal's 2010 season...
Indeed and i love Sinner wont have a word said against him, but, the reality is, without Alcaraz its just not the same and Sinner i suspect thinks that as well, just like Alcaraz said it wasnt the same last year without Sinner.Props.
So you expect Sinner to take a break out of generosity for Alcaraz? No ATG is that mentally feeble. Sinner knows in the future there will be a time when he's out of commission, and he knows Alcaraz won't hold back on grabbing wins while he's gone, so why shouldn't he?Indeed and i love Sinner wont have a word said against him, but, the reality is, without Alcaraz its just not the same and Sinner i suspect thinks that as well, just like Alcaraz said it wasnt the same last year without Sinner.
The true greats dont try to stat pad and celeberate when their main rivals are not playing through injury or other reasons.
No not at all and by all means make hay while the opportunity is there, be ruthless. However this period of time will be irrelevant in terms of who was greater out of the two. Thats my point. Fans remember the great finals between ATGs and make judgments based on those matches, not number crunching.So you expect Sinner to take a break out of generosity for Alcaraz?

So does that mean Nadal 2022, 2010, Djokovic 2015-2016, and Federer's years before Djokodal started destroying him are illegitimate?No not at all and by all means make hay while the opportunity is there, be ruthless.

Two - Bonzi and MachacSinner has lost one set so far since the start of Indian Wells.
To me Djokovic isn't very exciting except for when he decides to pull the sliding backhand. Sinner is a big more interesting to me because he feels crisp and clean with every groundstroke while Djokovic would often wobble and lose balance during rallies that drifted out of his control (especially during that infamous match in Shanghai 2013)Incredible stats, but I find him so boring. I guess that’s how some people feel about Djokovic though. lol
Fully agree, no matter the usual Slam priority in our sport.If he wins the first five masters, then he seriously has to prioritize the remaining four IMO. He could do what many have said was next to impossible.
I disagree, Slams should always have priority. Lendl won 8 consecutive Masters (although skipping some), yet nobody even knows thatIf he wins the first five masters, then he seriously has to prioritize the remaining four IMO. He could do what many have said was next to impossible.
He will break Djokovic's record for best start to masters series events titles, winning the first 4.
He will also break Nadal and Djokovic's record of winning four consecutive masters titles, he will in fact have won 5.
He will break the tie with Federer, Nadal, and Agassi and become only the second player to win 8 out of 9 masters titles
He will be on course to equal Djokovic in Rome by completely the set of masters series titles. He is on course to be the youngest to do it.
He will be on course to equal Nadal by winning all three clay masters title in a season in Rome
Two...Sinner has lost one set so far since the start of Indian Wells.
The streak doesn't count if events were skipped. Match winning streaks are based on tournaments entered, but title winning streaks are based on tournaments held.I disagree, Slams should always have priority. Lendl won 8 consecutive Masters (although skipping some), yet nobody even knows that
Not really. For example UltimateTennisStatistics gives the record to LendlThe streak doesn't count if events were skipped. Match winning streaks are based on tournaments entered, but title winning streaks are based on tournaments held.
Seems wrong to me. Because it gives the opportunity to just skip tournaments where you don't feel comfortable about winning in those conditions. Especially when the tournaments weren't mandatory for the rankings before 2000.Not really. For example UltimateTennisStatistics gives the record to Lendl

They're wrong. A "that he entered" tournament streak is an entirely different animal.Not really. For example UltimateTennisStatistics gives the record to Lendl

They are not wrong, they are simply two different methodsThey're wrong. A "that he entered" tournament streak is an entirely different animal.
Does Maureen Connolly hold the record for most slams won in a row? The record is nine slams?They are not wrong, they are simply two different methods
Novak is the only one that's even won them all... at all in the course of the entire careerIf Sinner win first 5 masters then he had to go for 9 master.
That will be amazing record .
With carlos or without carlos.
Weak era strong era this record has not been acheived before .
All masters in 1 year when likes of FEDERER NADAL had not won all and when Even NOVAK could not won all of them in single year.
No, he does not have to go for that.If Sinner win first 5 masters then he had to go for 9 master.
Nadal beat Djokovic in 2010. Nadal 2022 AO win is always disputed by Novak fans.So does that mean Nadal 2022, 2010, Djokovic 2015-2016, and Federer's years before Djokodal started destroying him are illegitimate?
Sinner beating 4 nobodies and a washed up Zverev for another big title should become a meme at this point.
Sinner's tough draw in Rome coming up:
R2 - Happytogetawildcardacis
R3 - Chokakis
QF - Imsoscaredakis
SF - Fils
F - Zverev
And to complete the set at the FO:
R1 - Localmugakis
R2 - Anotherlocalmugakis
R3 - Qualiakis
R4 - Waiterakis
QF - Shelton
SF - Somenoobwhowentdeeperinatournamentforonceakis
F - Zverev
Sinner dominates clay, loses a total of 3 sets in MC/Madrid/Rome/FO to complete the big title set and the crowd goes zzzzzzzzzzzz.
Peak Ferrer would wash him lolSinner dominates clay, loses a total of 3 sets in MC/Madrid/Rome/FO to complete the big title set and the crowd goes zzzzzzzzzzzz.
And also can't wait from Sinnerheads to start comparing Sinner to Fed. See? Fed never won MC or Rome and Sinner already has both at 24.Peak Ferrer would wash him lol
Really wish he didn't blow his chance against Felix Mantilla though. Unfortunately he was still a nutcase thenAnd also can't wait from Sinnerheads to start comparing Sinner to Fed. See? Fed never won MC or Rome and Sinner already has both at 24.
Yeah I wish Fed played a final against Noobakis or a washed up Zverev in MC/Rome once instead of prime Nadal all the time.
I’m already seeing it on r/tennis. My fault for venturing into that swamp.And also can't wait from Sinnerheads to start comparing Sinner to Fed. See? Fed never won MC or Rome and Sinner already has both at 24.

2, but still very impressive.Sinner has lost one set so far since the start of Indian Wells.
He's comfortable af mentally right now. Has to feel wonderful knowing you can beat everyone you play with relative ease2, but still very impressive.
That AO defeat still stinging dking?He needs to absolutely eviscerate him.
Your first good message today.NO.VAX NOLE
How many slams you think he will win this year?That AO defeat still stinging dking?
Anyway congrats to Sinner, I think it's safe to say he'll also be breaking Djokovic's record for most Masters in a season and if he does good for him. Records in sports are meant to be broken.
60% 2, 45% 3. A re-invigorated Alcaraz could beat him at USO.How many slams you think he will win this year?
you hate djokovic? sure I understand the RG titles, nobody will touch that, but if we are saying sinner is breaking all records, consecutive no.1 is defintely not the second hardest record to break. I guess you are just a big fed fanHe'll break all the records except consecutive No.1 weeks and RG titles.
Depends how long Alcaraz is out for. As things stand right now I wouldn't be surprised if he's holding all 4 slams this time next year.How many slams you think he will win this year?
I just worry that he’s overplaying, my main concernDepends how long Alcaraz is out for. As things stand right now I wouldn't be surprised if he's holding all 4 slams this time next year.
So you’re saying, he wins RG, W, USO and AO in succession?Depends how long Alcaraz is out for. As things stand right now I wouldn't be surprised if he's holding all 4 slams this time next year.
That would mean Sinner would go 2 years without a HC slam, and seeing how well he played on hard this year, it’s hard to see that happening, and that would also mean Alcaraz leads Sinner at HC slams, and I don’t think that would sit right with me. Sinner is the better hard courter and should end with more when it’s all said and done60% 2, 45% 3. A re-invigorated Alcaraz could beat him at USO.
Yes. Without Alcaraz who's gonna stop him?So you’re saying, he wins RG, W, USO and AO in succession?
I just have a theory that all good things come to an end. He won’t be able to deliver sublime performances time after time again. I’m just enjoying his wins as of now, but I’m just prepared for the inevitable loss. It will happen, the question is, when?Yes. Without Alcaraz who's gonna stop him?
That's what makes being a fan of the world's best player all the more exciting.I just have a theory that all good things come to an end.
