Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz shared this season's 4 Grand Slam titles. For the first time since 2002, neither Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal nor Roger Federer won a major title this year.

A statistic that seems to confirm the end of the Big 3 era. Sinner gave his thoughts on the subject at a press conference after his victory in the US Open final.

Jannik Sinner:
"Well, it's a bit different, that's for sure. I mean, it's something new, but it's also nice to see.

It's nice to see new champions. It's nice to see new rivalries. I've always had players and I'll always have players who will make me a better player because, you know, there will be times when they beat me.

Then you have to try and find a way to win against certain players. And today we saw that not everything was perfect. I could have served a little better.

But, you know, it makes me realize that the work never stops. You always have to keep working, which means that ultimately, if you want to become a better player, you always have to work and have these daily routines, even in the difficult moments on court.

So it's a good thing for tennis to have new champions."

As we move to the end of this month and also closing out the year I am wishing all of those following me a Merry Christmas and a Happy/Healthy New Year.

Let's make that wish for all 2000 plus players hoping for 5 wins each day. Hoping ŵhen we open the results page to see all green, and no red. And especially NO CANCELED matches.

From me and my rotti JAZ, I bid you all good night, and see you in...

I love tennis

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.
