With the Count of Godó already underway in Barcelona, the debate returns about who will be the tennis players of the present and the future, that is, the heirs of Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer.
In all pools it appears Carlos Alcaraz, current world number 2 and defending champion in Barcelona. Along with him other names such as Jannik Sinner and Holger Rune. That is the bet that the two Russian tennis players have made Daniil Medvedev and Rublevtwo of the authorized voices of the circuit.
And Alcaraz has referred to it in the preview of the tournament… although focusing on Sinner: “We are both very young We’ve played great tournaments, we’ve fought for great things, and every time we play it’s fun. They’re great games.”
“I hope to have that rivalry like the one that Nadal, Federer and Djokovic had. And also because we get along very well off the court, it’s nice, to have that rivalry”, said the Murcian tennis player, who seeks to recover that number 1 lost in Miami.
On the absence of Nadal, he is convinced that it is not good news: “I want to see the best. It’s a shame not to have Nadal here, not to be able to enjoy his tennis. I wish him a recovery as soon as possible to enjoy it in tournaments.”
The clay season begins and that makes the Spanish tennis player more than happy: “For me, playing on the ground is like being in a battle. and that’s what I like, each point is a battle and you have to play tactically, and that’s the beauty of playing on the ground”.
