Aye playing the top seed today, surely to * man.

 

And that's Raducanu out. Gave Sabalenka a right game but thankfully got beat in the end.

Unfortunately there's still another English women in the draw in Sonny Kartal. She's flying and in the last 16 but hopefully goes out in the next round.

 

* yir tennis!

 

Alcaraz is class. Just so good.

 

Hopefully Djokovic can take care of the cheating * Sinner now.

 

Got a feeling Sinner is going to absolutely wipe the floor with Djokovic today.

 

Just seen Sinner hasn't lost to Dickovic in their last 5 meetings so obviously has a successful game plan for him. Happy days.

 

Djokovic battered today.

Fancy Sinner over Alcaraz in the final too tbh. He was unreal today.

 

Wonder if Sinner is actually clean for this tournament.

 

Me too, he’s been far more consistent this tournament. Can’t rule Carlitos out obviously, but I think Sinner will edge it. Hope I’m wrong though.

 

Feel sorry for Anisimova but she completely froze there. Probably the worst Wimbledon final performance I’ve ever seen.

 

Aye, bit of a damp squib. Total bottle job of a performance.

She spoke well after it, though. Fair play.

 

Well of course the Women’s final was disappointing but the winner played at very high standard no matter what and she was the best player in the draw by some distance. I also had some money on her so from a betting point of view it was a total Joy

I also have a betting interest in Sinner who I think will win the Men’s singles today in total style. Yes he got lucky in the last 16 but so did Sampras back in the day and he went on to win as well.
It will be good for the game if Sinner wins then a it really is a fine rivalry , but he will have to deserve it anything less than his best and that will be that.

 

French Open Final will be talked about for years & the rivalry between Skinner and Alcaraz is sure to be a great one

I concur with McEnroe that inexplicably grass is Carlitos’ best surface considering both him and Jannik grew up playing mostly on clay

Moreover, you can hear/see it from all the players on the tour, as aura goes they all fear Alcaraz. Can’t wait for today’s final, Carlos FTW

 

Hope Alcaraz pumps Sinner. There’s serious doubts over Sinner for me. It was a farce that his ban was up just in time for him to play in the French Open, and if you get found guilty of doping, the. It should be an automatic lifetime ban in my opinion.

 

These two going absolutely at it from the first rally today. Great to see.

Alcaraz tends to get the better of Sinner but when you watch them there's absolutely nothing in it.

 

Just tuned in last 15 minutes, Sinner bossing it at the minute and Alcaraz looking like he's losing the plot a bit.

 

Aye Sinner's peeled away and found another level.

Alcaraz still tends to get the better of him but Sinner is so consistently high quality.

 

Alcaraz is a hard man to put away from what I gather but looking to me like this is only going one way.
