I haven't seen all of Zverev's games but that's because apart from his serve I just don't enjoy watching him play. Sinner though, is a far more complete player even if he looks like a stretched matchstick.
-
For me, Zverev is too conservative. He stands too deep, doesn't hit as flat hard or as deep as Sinner. IMHO Shelton worried Sinner more, but suffered from a lack of discipline.
He needs to.take a leaf out of Madison Keys' book, make some serious changes to improve the weaker parts of his game

Pommie Cam Norrie overcame a poor start to win out in 5 sets
A Saffa who grew up and went to high school in NZ. Bit of a plastic Pom.

Yup, I know who he is. Learned his tennis in Auckland, was a highly touted world ranked junior who left because NZT wouldn't help him out a little with some of his expenses. Otherwise he'd be our Cam

Not a surprise that a NZ sporting body wouldn't help out a young player with expenses. Same thing happened with Steven Adams which is why you never see him in a Tall Blacks singlet.

Alcaraz too fit, too good. Novak looking his age now. It's becoming clear that he won't win a GS if he has to beat both Sinner and Alcaraz to do it
To be fair that would tax most top players...

He got the perfect run to the final until the last two games. Has anyone beaten both Carlos and Yannik in a GS? I don't think so since they've become GS champions themselves

You mean one after another? I don't think so.
But there have been players who have beaten both at different Grand Slams. You know at least one. And that Russian drama queen.
is it true that up to now Novak led Carlos H2H with 5-4 wins? Juicy. -
