Tallon Griekspoor once again lost out to Jannik Sinner in the Davis Cup final in Malaga on Sunday. Defeated for the 6th time in 6 duels, the Dutch No. 1 gave it his all, even giving Sinner doubts in the first set.

Unfortunately for him, the world's No. 1 was stronger in the end, winning in two sets (7-6, 6-2) to secure the title for his nation. In a statement relayed by Punto de Break, Griekspoor reflected on this latest setback, appearing almost disgusted: "I had no choice but to play at a high level.

This Jannik with this level and confidence is incredibly difficult to beat. I tried to give it my best shot and I think I was up to the task in the first set and at the start of the second.

I only committed three unforced errors in the first set and still lost it."

That could be for a number of reasons. Like your strategy to control the play didn't prevent Sinner to be in position to hit winners. Or your defense wasn't good enough to prevent Sinner from hitting winners.

Favoritism?

Last year: Sinner seed 1, the organizers schedule Alcaraz on day 1, Sinner on day 2.

That means: 7 matches in 15 days for Alcaraz, 7 in 13 days for Sinner; and no rest day for Sinner between quarter and semis, 1 full day rest for Alcaraz.

Also, on the first very hot day, the organizers schedule Sinner...
