He Open the Australia won by Carlos Alcarazachieving his seventh Grand Slam at only 22 years old and defeating Djokovic In the final, it has generated a debate that compares the Big Three with the duo formed by Sinner and the Murcian.

One of those who has encouraged this reflection has been Patrick Mouratoglouwho argued that Alcaraz and the Italian are better than Federer, Nadal and Djokovic. Another side argues that it is still too early to make that comparison.

This is how he expressed it Andy Roddick. For the former number one in the ATP ranking in 2003 “it should not become something controversial” since Alcaraz “would not exist without Federer, Nadal and Djokovic”these three being an inspiration for the Murcian.
