Honestly, the Sinner saw in the previous rounds was way better then the one in the final, but still it wouldn’t be enough to beat this Djokovic. Maybe with a bit of luck he could’ve put it to the third.
The Djokovic seen in semi-final and final has been just… too much. He was like when you play videogames with trick codes and create a 100/100/100… player. Serving like Isner, brutal groundstrokes, he often outplayed Sinner in his favourite aspect, the one that in the previous 2 months allowed him to beat Meddie 3 times in a row and Alcaraz in two sets.
This man at 36 is perfection. How is it possible to last this much without dropping your level / eventually crush for injuries? How can your body avoid age?
And I’ll never stress this enough, this is not a weak era imho. It’s just obviously weaker than big-3 one, but a legit era will open when (if?) Novak eventually retire. Alcaraz already proved he can reach extreme levels. Sinner is starting to go big. Medvedev is extremely consistent and made an incredible season. But what can they do when a 36yo granpa plays like the age just improved his few weak aspects? Indoor 100% 36yo Novak can be beaten only by prime Big-3 imho. Just by young himself or young Federer.
