Winner of his second Australian Open, Jannik Sinner has been the subject of numerous comparisons with tennis legends in recent days, thanks to his level of play on court.

But also in terms of his personality, as described by Tony Godsick, Roger Federer's long-time agent, for La Stampa: "As a world star, at the moment, he can't replace Federer or Nadal.

But people love him, he plays a style of tennis that I like a lot and he knows how to give his best in important moments.

I don't know if he can become a legend like Roger or Rafa, but he's on the right track. He's serious, very professional, behaves well on court and doesn't do stupid things off it.

In that respect, he reminds me of Roger."

Sinner Jannik

2e, 11500 points

Federer Roger

Non classé

Nadal Rafael

He plays more like Djokovic in his prime than either Federer or Nadal. Federer could come up with mind numbing offensive shots and Nadal could get shots that others would just watch go by and put them back in play with pace. Sinner and Djokovic are in between Federer and Nadal.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
