An epic duel, two match points saved, and an unforgettable victory: Alcaraz explains how staying positive and believing in oneself allowed him to triumph against Sinner at Roland-Garros.

The Roland-Garros final will remain the highlight of the 2025 ATP circuit. A historically long duel between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner won by the Spaniard after saving two match points.

It was enough to be discussed again months later at a press conference during the Laver Cup:

"I played well throughout the match and always believed that I could come back. I decided that I wasn't going to give up, that I was going to give it my all. Staying positive was the best thing that could have happened to me. I always imagined that I was going to come out victorious, and that was the key.

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.

I propose the following changes to the rules:

1...a walķover will not be a loss. We have no control of player's health. If he or she is entered in a contest we expect them to play.

2...an incomplete match is not a loss. If a player forfeits we pick another match if there are more to choose.

3...this also applies if TT cancels a match. TT will not take hours to decide an outcome.

How about leavin...
