What degree of barbarity must you have said for Rafa Nadal Comment on your post with emoticons of laughter and, so to speak, of embarrassment.
That’s what you might be thinking Patrick Mouratoglou After his last post on Instagram in which he analyzed what the Open the Australia.
In summary, the former coach of Grigor Dimitrov or Serena Williams affirms without half measures that Sinner is better than the ‘Big Three’like Carlos Alcaraz.
And he assures it based on the Italian’s defeat against Novak Djokovic in the semifinals of the Melbourne Grand Slam.
“For those who think that Djokovic beating Sinner means that the Big-3 plays better tennis than Alcaraz beat Sinner, It’s very short-sighted“, he pointed out.
“First, you take a match and make it a rule. Remember that Sinner had won all five of their previous matches. Just one match won’t change my opinion from what I have seen over the last 2-3 years,” he added.
According to Mouratoglou, Sinner is better at everything than Djokovic, except mental strength: “Jannik is faster, he hits the ball harder… But Novak has the strongest mentality in tennis.”
Well, in the face of so much daring, Rafa Nadal could not contain himself and in the same coach’s publication he commented five emoticons: three of laughter, one blushing and another of apparent embarrassment (not wanting or looking). And for the manacorí to do this… you must have made a mess.
🗣 Mouratoglou: “To think that Alcaraz and Sinner are not better than Federer, Nadal and Djokovic simply because Novak beat Sinner at the Australian Open is a wrong view.”
Nadal’s response: 🤭🫣🤣🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/eWR8cVtKvx
