Lmao...what a way to win the set. What a shot!

And now Sinners turn...great shots all game including the set winner

I know this is a stupid gripe, but Sinner fist pumping after literally every point won drives me crazy.

Ok.

Wimbledon final against top rival...but sure, each point isnt very important.

Alcaraz giving too many points away today, especially at multiple game points.

Oopsies. Alcaraz got whooped. Sinner was up a break in the 1st set too, so it could have been straight sets for Sinner.

Drove me crazy watching it happen over and over. Alcaraz would hit a serve to the corner, Sinner would hit a defensive shot back near the baseline, and Alcaraz wouldn't move his feet only to hit a wimpy short-hop wrist flick back, giving Sinner an easy advantage in the rally. Happened over and over.

Feels like we just left a generation where 3 guys could win a title at any given time to one where 2 guys can. Would be nice if 4-5 players could step up and add some parity to the sport but I don’t see it happening any time soon.

Tennis will never have that golden age again. Wished I would've paid more attention to it all. 3 very different, incredible athletes, all going at it hard in their prime. It's crazy when you think about it, especially in an individual sport.

And now these two show up? They are both no joke. But the longevity the others displayed? We'll see if either can match that. They are good for each other, keep pushing it, and that part's important.

But I still feel like tennis is in a precarious place nowadays. These two are carrying a big torch right now. Good for them but the longevity of the greats before them? I'll believe that when I see it.

Here's a fun one...

The only players under 29 years old that have won a major are Alcaraz (5) and Sinner (4). No one else has one.

Yeah, my wife is an Alcaraz fan and can’t understand why I rooted for Sinner. Of the two, Alcaraz is more likable and exciting, but I really just want somebody else to have a decent chance at winning. It would be even better for a couple others to join the mix, though seems like a two-man show for the foreseeable future.

I used to have high hopes for Medvedev and still enjoy watching him play but it seems like he’s really taken the piss now. Disappointing.

He’s actually my favorite player. Awkward, but cerebral, and funny. Definitely appears to be in decline.
