Sinner vs. Alcaraz best quotes
Sinner: “Every time we play against each other, I feel like we both try to push each other to the limit. We hate losing, especially against each other. We have a very good relationship off court–we are good friends–but on court, inside you feel a little bit nervous.”
Alcaraz: “I’m glad to have him in the tour, to have him at this level. Thanks to him I push myself to be better, to be a better player, to give my 100 percent every day, to wake up in the morning to want to improve my game to try to beat him. So I’m grateful to have him playing, and I love watching him play, as well.”
