The show must go on and there are several young boys willing to make it so. In a very short time, the hints of catastrophism regarding the future of world tennis have turned into hope and excitement about what is to come and what is already happening. These are sweet moments for the fans, in which the love for some legends that continue to radiate uncontainable brilliance of light in their sunset is mixed, and new emerging stars that flood the sky and seek their place in the noble zone of the firmament. Carlos Alcaraz seems to be the undeniable genius of the present and the future, everyone agreeing that he is a step above the rest, but it is very interesting to see how intimate rivalries can be brewing with Holger Rune and Jannik Sinnerthe two staunchest opponents of the empire that Murcia is trying to build.
The concept of Big 3, and even unfair due to the tendency to eliminate other tennis players of a high level and projection from the equation, but the truth is that something special is breathed between Spanish, Norwegian and Italian. They have very different styles and personalities, work teams that are as prestigious as they are varied in terms of character and way of understanding tennis, as well as different trajectories up to now. Sinner was never perceived in his youth as a star in the making, but instead he has been building himself and progressing in a way that is as brutal as it is unexpected for everyone. He continues to do so, with constant, slight improvements and relying on regularity before burning the next stage.
Alcaraz and Rune were international geniuses when they were just children and have managed to confirm the best omens around their tennis. They are two privileged people who have been endowed with the natural gift of playing tennis and who, far from being satisfied with that, have cultivated a privileged mind to elevate this sport to a higher level. Lovers of hot environments, passionate about full and boisterous stadiums, and aware that 21st century tennis is more than just a sport, they can challenge themselves and feed back from each other.
There is no doubt that the most complete at the moment is Carlos Alcaraz, as well as the one with the most technical, tactical and intangible champion arguments. Many consider that it is not normal for a 19-year-old boy to be so complete and that it will be difficult for him to evolve, being a tremendous challenge to see how others are narrowing the current gap. Juan Carlos Ferrero has repeated on more than one occasion that Carlitos still has a lot of room for improvement and, if this is the case, it seems impossible for someone to overshadow him. Holger Rune He needs to work a lot on a physical level, being a player still under construction in this area, as well as in managing emotions. Being a bad boy can help tennis and him a lot, due to his character, but he must be clear about the limits since the line between the player with character and the buffoon is very fine.
Alcaraz is the most complete right now and whether he has more or less competition will depend on his ability to improve
On the other hand, the case of Jannik Sinner It is the most exciting and the one with the most edges. The Italian is two years older than his opponents, but that is not particularly noticeable in top situations. His coolness and ability to control emotions on the court is very remarkable, but he has offered serious cracks in terms of confidence and mettle in key situations. Many will get impatient with him, seeing that he doesn’t quite take the step to the next level, but Jannik must be interpreted as a diesel player, a man who needs to feel safe in his comfort zone before leaving it and who is in a hugely complex process. of progression. He can improve a lot in his game at half court, he has a wide margin in the second service and the rest, he still has to work on the parallel shots and, in short, although he is the oldest by age, he is the one with the most things to polish.
His gameplay isn’t as natural as Alcaraz and Rune’s, so he requires a degree of precision in his extreme work. The robotization of tennis can be applied by a Sinner who offers a sublime show with his genuine style and who will reach great levels of success, even if he does not have the charisma of the other two. To these should be added other tennis players such as Félix Auger-Aliassime, who seems predestined to form a Big 4, although he is not evolving as expected, as well as other talents in training. Among them, one could cite Ben Shelton, Jiri Lehecka, Jack Draper or, even younger, Luca Van Assche, Arthur Fils or Juncheng Shang. In short, a golden age for tennis is coming, with three players who are applying to form a historic Big 3.
