Tennis: World no.1 Iga Swiatek has won a third-consecutive French Open title, comprehensively defeating Italian Jasmine Paolini.
Swiatek wins third-straight French Open | 02:33There is a common theme that could have been drawn from the brilliant performances of Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev on Roland Garros on Friday had it been a usual grand slam day.
In his semi-final with Australian Open champion Jannik Sinner, who will be crowned No.1 on Monday, Alcaraz again cramped. But this time he did not panic. Calm thinking won the day. From a perilous position in the third set, he bounced back to progress in five sets. To see him back in Paris playing with such distinction is a testament to his fortitude and his resilience on the court.
As far as the No.4 seed is concerned, the matter is resolved and it is time for him and everyone else to look ahead. In a sport where only one person emerges unbeaten each week, there is little point dwelling on a result once it is decided. Except it is not as simple as Zverev states. It also buys the ATP Tour, which announced in January, 2023, that there was not enough evidence to support allegations made by another former partner of Zverev, time as well.
Zverev, who has 22 ATP Tour titles to his name, resumed from the ankle injury in Australia last year and took some time to find his regular consistency, but his form returned in Paris. Zverev declared after losing to Thiem in New York in 2020 that he did not believe he was ready yet to become a grand slam champion. But he has belief in his capabilities now.
“I’m happy the way and the path I had. I’m happy to be in a grand slam final and to give myself the best chance to win on Sunday.”Alcaraz, meanwhile, will become the youngest man to win a major on three different surfaces if he prevails on Sunday after his wins in New York in 2022 and at Wimbledon last year. That is right. Younger than Federer, Nadal or Djokovic. It would be some feat.
Alcaraz has been ordained as the next great Spaniard after Nadal and his deeds to date probably surpass the hype that has surrounded him for years, so brilliant has he been. “ I wanted to put my name on that list of the Spanish players who won this tournament. not only Rafa. Ferrero, Moya, Costa.
