"The best version of myself is yet to come," states Alcaraz
The tennis world will witness another clash between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner in the final of the Six Kings Slam.
As part of the second edition of the Six Kings Slam exhibition, the world's two best players, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, have both held their ground and will meet in the final.
The Spaniard dominated Taylor Fritz while the Italian eliminated Novak Djokovic, both in straight sets. Having had an excellent season and having reclaimed the world number 1 spot, Alcaraz, who has already won eight titles in 2025, doesn't seem satisfied. After his victory against Fritz, the 22-year-old player addressed the press.
"I'm here with the goal of continuing to be as aggressive in my game as I was in Tokyo. It's certain that the playing conditions are completely different, especially the altitude, which makes the balls fly farther and bounce higher.
I'm trying to adapt in the best way possible, while keeping that sense of aggressiveness, which is what can allow me to get better results in this part of the season.
I'm not yet at my best level, the best version of myself is yet to come," Alcaraz assured Punto de Break. The final of the Six Kings Slam will take place this Saturday, October 18th in Riyadh.
