Their rivalry, which is among the most thrilling in men’s tennis today, was further cemented by this match.
Both players showed excellent shot-making and court coverage right away. Sinner’s strong forehand and Alcaraz’s explosive backhand maintained the first set’s delicate balance as both players exchanged deep, penetrating groundstrokes.
After the match, Alcaraz was having a brief conversation with his team when a ball flew violently from the stands and was hurled in his direction, passing right in front of his face.
Alcaraz’s response was quick. He made it apparent that he did not approve of the action by intending to get the crowd to provide explanations by raising his hands.
