Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz are two names that are currently leading the way on the tennis scene. Most expect that their rivalry will be interesting in the coming years as well, and it is hard to imagine anyone who could really compete with them. The Italian tennis player will not play at the Japan Open, as he is making his debut at the China Open.
However, Alcaraz will still be part of the tournament in Japan which starts today.
In an interview with the media, the Spanish tennis player talked about all his ambitions and goals related to this tournament, responding to the reporter's question if he felt relieved that Sinner was not part of the tournament.
Carlos Alcaraz stressed that this is not a relief for him, considering that he enjoys playing against Sinner.
However, it is a big deal to play against other tennis players, as there are many quality players who really give their best when facing Alcaraz or Sinner.
