00:00Quite simply, the chasing pack are not doing their homework.
00:03The first thing that they need to recognise is they are the second most important person on the court, not the first.
00:10Sinner and Alcaraz have separated themselves from the pack, and it's about asking the most important question in tennis.
00:16Is it more important to hit the ball where you want to hit it, or more important to hit it where your opponent doesn't want it?
00:21Sinner and Alcaraz are always updating their game by studying each other and looking at the patterns of play that they need.
00:31Lesser-ranked players, players that are emerging, are not doing it enough.
00:36I'm a strategy analyst, that's what I do.
00:38Talking to players, talking to coaches, there is not enough of that going on.
00:43They're much more about their own game rather than trying to understand where the opponents have their strengths and weaknesses.
