Carlos Alcaraz, currently ranked world number three, recently shared his thoughts on Jannik Sinner’s withdrawal from the upcoming Rotterdam tournament. Alcaraz expressed understanding and support for Sinner’s decision, acknowledging the physical demands following a Grand Slam victory. He stated, “I understand. I know how difficult it is to stay healthy after a Slam where you go all the way. I guess he didn’t feel ready to play another tournament so soon, which was smart.”
Alcaraz also praised Sinner’s recent performances, highlighting his remarkable consistency and success. He remarked, “Jannik has proven to be the best at the moment, it’s crazy what he’s doing. I understand the debate over who is better between us, but for me and the players who face him, Jannik is undoubtedly the strongest.”
Sinner’s decision to withdraw from Rotterdam comes after his recent Australian Open victory, marking his third major title. He plans to rest and prepare for upcoming tournaments, including the ATP 500 event in Doha.
