Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz currently occupy the top two spots in the ATP rankings, respectively. Their most recent clash at Roland Garros was epic. Many believe the final – which lasted over five hours – joined the list of the greatest Grand Slam matches of all time. Following the defeat, Sinner has spoken about where things stand with Alcaraz, and there appear to be no hard feelings between the two young stars.

Novak Djokovic is often considered the greatest tennis player of all time, but not by world number 26 Stefanos Tsitsipas. Djokovic is a record 24-time Grand Slam champion, winning nine of those major titles with Goran Ivanisevic as his coach. The Serbian parted ways with the former Wimbledon champion last year, with Ivanisevic now coaching Tsitsipas. While Djokovic and Tsitsipas now have that in common, the Greek has picked another player as his greatest player of all time.

Jannik Sinner has reached back-to-back finals since returning to the ATP Tour. Sinner was beaten by Carlos Alcaraz in both of those clay court finals, most recently in the five set thriller at Roland Garros. The Italian actually led the Roland Garros final by two sets to love, with Alcaraz saving three championship points against Sinner. There was a lot of praise for Sinner and Alcaraz after that final, including from John McEnroe who claimed they could beat Rafael Nadal.

Iga Swiatek saw her dominant run at Roland Garros come to an end this year. Swiatek lost to Aryna Sabalenka in her semi-final, bringing an end to her 26-match winning streak at the Paris major. As a result of her latest defeat, Swiatek has fallen to her lowest ranking since February 2022. This has continued a difficult run of form for Swiatek, who has not reached a final in over a year now.
