Semi-Pro
Now it's looking bad for Sinner
But Carlos should really push for break, wouldn't need to serve it out

Clutch serving again, like how he clutched on his serve at the Wimbledon final
Respect there. Seriously, I was surprised at how well he finished.
And even over here, he can deal with closing matches out.
Alcaraz seems to handle closing matches very well. He just loses focus when he is leading sometimes.

Alcaraz tanked sets one and three so that Ruud would have a better shot against Z in the slow night conditions. Genius.
I almost forgot there was another match after this. I wonder if your statement is true though - Ruud depends so much on his high spin game, although he is a great mover and defender in slow courts as well. Interesting question, suppose we’ll see.

This isn't a final but his finals record is absurd. He just knows how to sense the moment.

Yeah who knows. Was thinking Z's serve would be easier to return at night, but you're right, Ruud loves his spin.
