Ancienne numéro 1 mondiale, Ana Ivanović estime que les grandes rivalités sont « ce qui fait le sport ». Elle se réjouit de voir naître, après Federer-Nadal ou Djokovic-Murray, une opposition de style entre Jannik Sinner et Carlos Alcaraz. Pour la Serbe, l’Italien impressionne par son calme et sa maîtrise dans les moments décisifs, tandis que l’Espagnol incarne une intensité proche de celle de Rafael Nadal.
00:00I think that's what makes the sport, you know, we always look for those rivalries and that's what you want to watch, that's what, you know, you want to get your popcorn and get excited, you know, you wake up in the night to watch those kind of matches, so it's really nice to see that men's tennis and now women's tennis has some of that too, so, but I think with Sinner, his mental strength and his composure, his coolness in the deciding points is just really, really amazing.
00:27Alcaraz is a little bit more hot-blooded, I would say, which brings that intensity, you know, that we maybe saw with Rafa, that's why I think they compare them because they have that intensity and, you know, Alcaraz is still super young and won so many Grand Slams and the level of his ball striking as well as Sinner's is really, really incredible, so it's, they're very close, very different characters, which tennis needs.
