Sinner says win over Alcaraz in Miami one of his best April 1, 2023 Sinner says the win against Alcaraz in Miami was one of his best<br /> 01 April 2023 Creation time: 10:11 AM Last updated: 10:11 AM Views: 42 Miami, April 1 (BNA): Italian Yannick Sinner described his victory on Friday against top seed Carlos Alcaraz in the Miami Open as one of the best in his career, saying that the competition between the two emerging opponents showed high levels of intensity. Reuters reports that 10th-seeded Sinner defeated defending champion Alcaraz 6-7 (4), 6-4, 6-2 in an epic semi-final duel, ending the Spaniard’s reign at the top of the rankings, as Novak Djokovic is set to take over on Monday. . Young Sinner and Alcaraz have formed one of the most exciting rivalries on the ATP Tour, with each taking three wins in their six meetings so far. For Sinner, Friday’s win came as an act of revenge after losing to Alcaraz two weeks earlier in Indian Wells on the same stage. “For sure it’s one of the best wins,” Sener, 21, told reporters. “Obviously it was a very difficult match. I think we played a very high level match.” “In the third set, I saw him struggle. I tried to push there, especially in the first game, because I knew it was the last game he was serving with the secondhand ball, so it’s a little easier to come back. “I think I changed a few things from Indian Wells to here, which I had to, and they went my way. So I’m happy with that.” Sinner will meet Russian Daniel Medvedev in the final on Sunday, as he seeks to win his first title in the Masters 1000 tournament. He has not yet defeated Medvedev in five meetings, and their last match was in the Rotterdam final in February. “Different circumstances (here) from Rotterdam,” Sinner said. “I am very happy that I can play him in the final again.” “Last time I lost obviously, but I will do my best, I will try to make some good changes like today against Carlos and let’s see. I feel good on this court.” Alcaraz missed the chance to become the first player to win the “Sunshine Double” since Roger Federer in 2017, but the 19-year-old was happy to experience the “beautiful” rivalry with Sinner once again. “I feel something different about the crowd when I play against Yannick,” Alcaraz said. “I think all the people around the world who are watching this match are probably all watching this match because I think it’s really cool to watch.” “I had the chance to get the Sunshine Double, but I think I’ll have more years to try and get it. But all I can think about is improving my level to beat Jannik.” M Source link Related READ MORE PSG romp to 3-0 win over Marseille thanks to Mbappe-Messi double act
