First 2 hours of the match, it was the astounding rally quality and display of pace off both wings from both players that stood out to me. No one besides Djoko really competes with these guys in rally tolerance at the very top of the game.
But then in the last half hour, Sinner’s backhand ascended from world-class to out of this world. Just godly hitting off that side to close the match out.
The 2-shot combo of absolute missile crosscourt backhand into laser DTL backhand to finish the point in 2 shots against a player like Med was just breathtaking.
