Mats Wilander, winner of seven Grand Slams and current Eurosport commentator, He wanted to give his impressions ahead of the Nitto ATP Finals in Turin, which brings together the eight best tennis players in the world.
In statements to Eurosport, Wilander expressed his astonishment at Sinner’s great year and assured that he sees the Italian as better than Alcaraz when it comes to facing big games. “How is it possible that Sinner has won seven tournaments when he has struggled all year. This shows that he is a great match player and I wasn’t very sure of that a few years ago. Yes I knew that Carlos Alcaraz was, but now he is too. Sinner is a big-match tennis player, like Djokovic, and more so than Alcarz. Sinner plays the same but he does it better when there is pressure and he did not show any slump during the Australian Open and the US Open.”
However, Wilander also expressed his concern about the Italian’s physical condition due to the numerous injuries he has suffered this season and which has caused him to miss several tournaments such as the Olympic Games. “I am concerned about his condition not only physically, but also mentally and in terms of viruses and diseases. He has had many injuries and problems. That’s why I wonder: can his body withstand a tough week with five games against the eight best in the world? “It’s not easy.”
