I have to say that Sinner is the “duck” coz he calm and serene on the surface (of the pond) but paddling like crazy underneath. Alcaraz would be the “chicken” coz he moves so fast, is light on his feet, and always optimistic. That leaves Medvedev as the “turkey” who wont back down and will fight back when threatened, a bit more noisy and very entertaining when you ruffle his feathers! Love the metaphor James
Sinner is seriously underrated. My sense is that he will dominate for years. On top of it, he’s way more popular than folks realize. His game is electric and he’s a quality human.
Sinner cannot beat alcaraz but alcaraz looses to many
How is he underrated? He’s been the talk of the tennis world since winning AO. Ppl have even been downplaying Alcaraz in their race to crown Sinner the next World #1 & multiple major champ.
Saying Sinner can’t beat Alcaraz is incorrect… part of what makes their rivalry fun is their 4-5 head to head. (I love both of them!)
@@dan_gheesling_is_the_goat Dude, people are saying Sinner is so much better than Alcaraz for ages, not taking in account that Sinner is already 2 years older than Alcaraz. Then they say Sinner was skiing, blah blah...
Alcaraz at 20 years old: won 2 GS, 5 Masters titles, became the youngest World No.1 in tennis history ever. Sinner at 22 and already 2 years older than Alcaraz: won 1 GS, 2 Master titles. That's it so far for Sinner.
Carlos is Amazing!!! I Love his Game!!! Sinner is Excellent too...
Interesting approach to capitalisation.
Nole does not play Miami to be the number one a couple of weeks and be the oldest number one. Another milestone for Nole, the wise man
Spot on as usual Andy ✌️
Novak now has 420 weeks as number one despite all the Covid breaks...
picking up the scraps between other players peaks
The goat!
@@steinanderson9849 Yes
There will always be one Big 3, with 66 Grand Slams and almost 1000 weeks as number 1. My prediction is the new generation will have multiple slam winners, with Sinner and Alcaraz a little ahead.
thank you
I just like how Andy genuinely loves the game and wants it to grow. I was a Fed head but wish Andy had that 2nd slam on his resume
I understand Roddicks take but I hope Alcaraz never loses his love of big shot making. As he matures he will likely get more selective as to when and when not to go for it, but that style is what makes him so thrilling to watch. There has also never been another player so balanced in terms of power, skill/feel, and IQ imo. I'm happy tennis finally has a next generation of young players deserving of the "torch," lead by Carlos.
Followed from instagram to youtube!
fascinating times. easy to forget that novak has won 3 of the last 5 slams and was finalist and semi-finalisr in the other 2. i do feel though that there's a changing of the guard happening. personally, i'm rooting for jannik. his tennis is just so exciting to watch. let's see what happens. some epic tennis matches ahead, that's for sure.
It’s a weak era
@@JH-bb8in don't watch then.
@@davidski1970 go s*ck on Nole
Best breakdown of tennis I ever heard a plumber give. Kudos 🎉😂
I agree, it seems like a mental thing for Nole. Maybe the young 3 have figured out his game inside out and now he just needs to come up with new strategies.
good thing he's arguably the best of all time at adapting when he needs to.
I don’t think it’s worry abt the younger players, if anything I think that keeps him motivated. It honestly seems like he’s been going through something personal, like he did round 2017 when he had marital troubles. He seems to be going through a Tom Brady style problem where he’s torn between tennis & being a present Dad.
There will never be another big 3 in our lifetimes .
👏
“Subcommittee of reliability” lmfaooo
Alcaraz, Sinner, Medvedev, Zverev, Tsitsipas have shown to be a step above their colleagues. Alcaraz and Sinner have the potential for GOAT trajectory
I get the impression that Andy knows a little bit about tennis :)
there is no new big three its carlos the phenomenon and jannick the machine the new big 2 thats it .. meddy is the andy murray at the moment .. always coming far but very few times able to beat the best of the best in finals
Andy & Jon are such a terrific duo! Such eloquence, wit, insight & rapport.
Wertheim’s meat trifecta analogy was so brilliantly original & hilarious. I kinda threw up in my mouth when he explained it’s duck, chicken & whatever else braided together & his joke about this being the “proximate cause” of obesity in America was hilarious 😅
This video says it was from an hour ago. But, it seems it was before the end of Miami.
this channel always re uploads dated content
Alcaraz and Sinner are technically above the rest. With Sinner a higher edge in the long run like Fed vs Nadal. The big 2 will be more correct :)
Interesting how they've all reached #1 in ranking now. So, now we need to see who is going to be the most consistently on top or will it keep changing hands? I already sense Daniil on a bit of a downturn as he's ranked #5 at the moment and he is the oldest of these three by a good number. My gut tells me it'll be Jannik. Carlos is already succumbing to injuries and mental lapses but he's the youngest.
I’m curious if Andy was ever a wrestler??!! I’ve heard a few wrestling references….
why does there have to be a new Big 3???? We never heard that before THE Big 3... Just let them be themselves and if in 10 years those 3 or 4 are still at the top, we'll talk.
👏
Alcaraz and Sinner look a little bit above Medvedev right now. The rivalry between them will be the biggest in the following years it seems like. To me Alcaraz is a bit more complete, he's very good at identifying when to go forward, and uses varied shots like dropshots and slices more naturally than Sinner, he's excellent in clay but he's won Wimbledon too. However Sinner has improved a lot lately, not only his serve, but his instinct for going to the net (and the occasional use of dropshots too). It's a fascinating duel.
Alcaraz is more explosive and has a better touch than Sinner, but not more complete.
For American's sake, Roddick needs to coach Ben Shelton. Father coach is too limited.
Turducken is all protein; it has nothing to do with obesity. Blame refined carbs (sugar), flour, and fast food/junk food for that.
If your life depended on it, who would you choose? The 'big three' or NOLE. ...comical
alcaraz has too many distractions and already too many injuries
spped courts up everything is to slow detracting form the athletic ability and possible variation in tennis skills. PLEASE
Having Medvedev there over Joker when Medvedev can only play on one surface is laughable. Can Medvedev win Rolland Garros? WImbledon? Knock it off. Joker still up there with the young boys. Also, I don't think Medvedev's game will age well. I'd put Casper or Fritz over him long term.
The Big 3 media moniker is the worst thing to happen to men's tennis since surface homogenization. It's lazy, reductive, anti-competitive, and attracts the most insufferable sideline braggarts. Let the Next Gen cohort do their own thing. The sooner we can move on from seeing everything through the lens of Big 3 media hysteria, the better. There is more to tennis than that rusty, readymade framework.
Not for nothing, Meddy is too old to be grouped with Sinner & Alcaraz regardless of his Top 5 ranking. He belongs with the previous generational cohort and y'all know it. We're already beginning to see him enter a different phase of his career. It would be more appropriate to look at players like Shelton & Rune when discussing Next Gen players (18-24) currently leading the way. Right now, it's more of a Dynamic Diarchy or All-Court Consuls in Alcaraz & Sinner.
👏
Great comment.
@@brendajohnson5525 Thanks! :)
People are just ruining "Big 3." This term Big 3 wasn't used until after Federer won 14 slams - and now people are tossing around "Big 3" for everything. Win one slam and oh my god, you're the new Big 3!!! It's a joke. Why? There's already a phrase - "top 3." This is how language becomes meaningless. "Awesome" and "epic" used to mean something extraordinary but now it's how people describe a loaded hot dog. Meaningless. There's only one Big 3 - Federer, Nadal, Djokovic - there will never be another Big 3. Just leave it alone. Stop messing up a good thing.
I hope Carlos never loses too much of his finesse and fire. We already have the robot called Sinner who I don't enjoy watching at all.
cry harder
If being so consistent with few errors makes one person a robot then I would see it as a compliment. He would be the kindest, most respectful “robot” ever and adds more variety at the top. Makes the ATP more interesting
i’m sure these players would love to change their play style to pander to your needs. after all, their only goal in life is to specifically entertain you.
at least Sinner goes after the ball, Novax hasn't for a long time.
@@choide19 as if sinner needs to change anything... on and off the court he has had great success. well-liked by the media, tons of fans trying to get his autograph, members of the tennis community always give him props for being so respectful, has tons of huge sponsorships from large companies, ambassador for brands like gucci... it's only armchair experts who talk down on him just because he's not boisterous 😂
