I think tennis players are the best athletes in the world," says Roddick

Andy Roddick reflected on the Roland-Garros final between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz. The match lasted 5 hours and 29 minutes, and the American took the opportunity to praise the athletic qualities of both players.

He stated: "I think tennis players are the best athletes in the world—five hours and over forty minutes on the biggest courts.

Compare that to other sports: an NBA game lasts 48 minutes in air conditioning, with timeouts for your teammates.

Before, people looked at us like we were at a country club. I don’t know how you can watch them and not say their athletic abilities are extraordinary. The more I watch them, the more I realize it.
