"Alcaraz's focus has been average compared to Sinner," analyzes Henman ahead of the clash between the two players
Alcaraz and Sinner will face off once again for a tournament title after their final in Beijing, which the Spaniard won. This match also remains Sinner's last defeat on the tour—since then, he has strung together 26 consecutive wins and 7 straight finals.
In an interview with Sky Sport UK, former player Tim Henman analyzed the two players' weeks ahead of their highly anticipated showdown:
"Carlos Alcaraz's focus in this tournament has been quite average so far. I think it’s because he’s felt very comfortable against his opponents, with all due respect to them. Against Jannik, I expect him to have the clarity to say, 'I can’t afford these lapses in concentration and poor shot selections.' Sinner, on the other hand, had great respect for his opponent, which is why his focus and intensity were so high, especially against Ruud (6-0, 6-1)."
The two players will face off on the center court on Sunday, May 18, starting at 5 PM.
