Tennis player Juan Carlos Ferrero comments on Carlos Alcaraz's maturity level following his US Open oath, stating that he appears to be more mature.
In the world of tennis, the dominance of the Big Three - Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic - twenty years ago is a legacy that is hard to surpass. Juan Carlos Ferrero, a former world No. 1, acknowledges this fact, but he sees glimmers of a new era in the performances of the up-and-coming talents, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner.
Ferrero, now a coach, led Alcaraz in the preparation for the US Open final. The team trained tirelessly for fifteen days, focusing on specific details to ensure they were ready for the challenge. The hard work paid off, as Alcaraz's performance in the final was near-perfect.
One of the key factors in Alcaraz's success was his improved serve. His modification of the serve motion, implemented in December, has significantly improved his game. This was evident in his performances at the Cincinnati Masters and the US Open, where his serve was one of the keys to his victories.
Alcaraz's serve wasn't the only aspect of his game that shone. He also demonstrated a variety of shots, including a slice and net approaches, which proved crucial in the match. He even tried to put pressure on his opponent, Jannik Sinner, earlier than Sinner was comfortable with.
Sinner, too, is a formidable opponent, particularly on hard courts. Ferrero agrees that the rivalry between Alcaraz and Sinner, and their current dominance, is reminiscent of the Big Three. However, he notes that the future is uncertain, and another player might emerge to fight for the big titles.
In his preparation for the US Open final, Alcaraz reviewed his matches against Sinner, including their encounter at Roland-Garros and Wimbledon. He used his loss at Wimbledon as a learning experience, focusing on areas for improvement.
Another factor that played a significant role in the match was Alcaraz's ability to hit faster than Sinner. This speed gave him an edge in rallies and allowed him to dictate the pace of the game.
Ferrero, reflecting on the match, praised Alcaraz's growth and maturity. He has become more aware of what aspects of his game and off-court life need improvement, and this self-awareness has contributed to his success.
As we look to the future, it's clear that the tennis world is in good hands with players like Alcaraz and Sinner. Their performances at the US Open serve as a testament to their talent and dedication. The question remains: Who will join them as the next generation of tennis superstars?
