Sinner is mentally tougher than 38 year old Djokovic

That drop shot was so dumb by Joker. Out of bounds and Sinner was there for it anyway. From 40-15 to losing the point damn I hate seeing the GOAT get old

If Djoker didn't try a single drop shot this match I'd love to see how things went.

Is Sinner going to win the FO without dropping a set?

Alcaraz will definitely take a set, but I don't see this robot losing a match right now.

15 years difference and 38 y.o. legs will do that

I disagree with yall. Djokovic's physical abilities or fitness is not the issue, it's that he's missed a ton of key potential winners and had more than twice as many unforced errors as Sinner in key spots. Then add to that his dumb drop shots (especially in set 1).

This could easily have been 1-1 and on serve in the 3rd

The way Sinner moves on the clay is such a pleasure to watch. These guys are beating the hell out of the balls.

Wow. Terrible miss that would have given him the mini-break.

Brings back memories of how hard it used to be for Novak to hit overheads...seems like (and was) ages ago.

I can definitely see back injuries in Sinner's future. Like Tiger before him, he's generating too much torque to get that power.

He should get caught and conveniently suspended again, but only in between majors. Him being fresh certainly hasn't hurt during this run.

Novak asked some questions and Sinner answered them all.
