Sinner at #4, Jezza...
For a long time I've been thinking bout starting an "Alcaraz & Sinner" thread. They're the next big things. Anyone else to add? (Rune??)
Seems like the Medvedev, Zverev, Tsitsipas gen's time has passed without ever really getting going. And poor ol Thiem. |

AdM lost to Sinner yet again.
But he still got a ratings boost to world #9. |

Alex dM defended his Acapulco title with a straight-sets win over Ruud.
Alex ended a 10-match losing streak against Tsitsipas in the QF. |

Feb 25:
'Australia’s Jordan Thompson has become the first player since Nick Kyrgios in Washington two years ago to win the singles and doubles titles at the same ATP Tour event.
Thompson completed the rare feat in Los Cabos, Mexico with countryman Max Purcell only a few minutes shy of 3am local time, after playing three matches – the singles final and two doubles matches – across the previous seven hours.
The 29-year-old fended off a swag of break points to upset world No.12 Casper Ruud 6-3, 7-6 (7-4) and capture his maiden singles title in what he described as a “miracle” result after overcoming several testing matches.
He battled for almost four hours to outlast sixth-ranked German star and top seed Alex Zverev in his semi-final a day earlier for his third career top-10 triumph.
Thompson spent eight hours and 40 minutes on court in total across two days...'

Well done, but it's hard to be excited for Thompson after he made that silly "wokest tournament ever" whinge at the AO... |
