CARLOS ALCARAZ STUNNED FANS WITH REMARK ABOUT JANNIK SINNER
Carlos Alcaraz vs Jannik Sinner for the ATP Finals title is a fitting 2025 finale. Despite leading their rivalry, Alcaraz admits the indoor specialist Sinner, unbeaten in 30 indoor matches, is the favourite in Turin.

World Nos. 1 and 2 Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner will square off in the title match at the ATP Finals in Turin on Sunday, marking a fitting end to the 2025 ATP season. All six of their meetings this season have taken place in the finals. Alcaraz secured the year-end No. 1 ranking by winning five of them, and he has already defeated Sinner this week.
Even though he "does not want to accept it," the Spanish great has suddenly admitted that Sinner is the favourite to win their ATP Finals. Sinner has a lot going for him because he has gone 30 games without losing on indoor hard courts. He has won his last 14 matches and has not lost a set in Turin since 2023.
Alcaraz is well aware of Sinner's statistics, even though he is less at ease on indoor hard courts. The six-time Major winner thinks Sinner has a good chance on Sunday, although he won their fight for the year-end No. 1 ranking.
Who is the favourite? After securing his place in his first ATP Finals final, Alcaraz grinned and remarked, "I mean, the No. 1 signifies that I have been playing really excellent throughout the season, on all surfaces."
On an indoor court, he is performing at his peak. We are performing for his home audience. He is the favourite, in my opinion. Even though I do not like to admit it, I think he is the favourite for tomorrow.
Although Alcaraz and Sinner have never met in person at the ATP Finals, they did play a practice match before the competition, with the world No. 2 winning handily. Alcaraz is aware that meeting in front of the Italian audience will make everything much more difficult.
"He beat me 6-3 quite easily, to be honest," the world No. 1 continued. It is a very different experience from attending a sporting event. I stated that one of the greatest or most challenging challenges in tennis at the moment is playing against Jannik on an indoor court.
"I believe he has won 30 and 31 straight indoor court matches. We are performing for his home audience. Playing against him becomes even more challenging as a result.
Alcaraz is 5-1 this season and has a 10-5 record against Sinner. The Spanish player defeated Sinner at the US Open, French Open, Italian Open, and Cincinnati Open, but his only defeat occurred in the Wimbledon final. Illness caused Sinner to retire 23 minutes into the Cincinnati final.
Last month, the world No. 2 defeated Alcaraz in the Six Kings Slam exhibition final, an unofficial contest played on indoor hard courts. Since then, Sinner has won consecutive titles in Paris and Vienna.
CARLOS ALCARAZ AND JANNIK SINNER SET FOR EPIC ATP FINALS
Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner will clash in the ATP Finals title match after both won their semi-finals in straight sets. The blockbuster final pits the year-end world No. 1 against the home favourite in Turin.

The two greatest tennis players, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, advanced to the final of the ATP Finals on November 15 and will now compete for the title.
After a string of exciting matches between Felix Auger-Aliassime and Alcaraz this year, the former defending world number one easily defeated the latter 6-2, 6-4 in Turin to set up the championship showdown that tennis fans had been waiting for.
The Spaniard has won four of the five encounters this season, all of which have taken place in the championship game, and has defeated Sinner 10–5.
After rallying from a two-set deficit and saving three match chances, Alcaraz won the US Open and Roland Garros finals.
Sinner, however, defeated Alex de Minaur 7-5, 6-2 earlier on November 15 to become the first Italian to win Wimbledon. The two have split the four Grand Slams this year.
It will be somewhat challenging. On the court, Alcaraz declared, "I think we increase our level to the top every time we encounter each other. The level we could play is very, really high."
Alcaraz's victory over Sinner in the men's rankings at the conclusion of 2025 and his participation in his 11th final of the season in front of a partisan Italian audience add further intrigue to the Nov. 16 final.
Alcaraz remarked, "Well, I expect at least three or four people in the crowd cheering for me."
"I will attempt to be really, really focused on my game and the things that I have to do, even if the crowd will undoubtedly be cheering for him."
Despite being an indoor specialist who has won seven of his eight titles on indoor courts, Canada's Auger-Aliassime was unable to stop Alcaraz, who took control of the match with a superb hooked volley in game four of the first set.
With another break of service, Alcaraz easily took a one-set lead. He then won the match with little effort and without resorting to his best tennis.
Sinner has not lost a service game yet, but Alcaraz will be a far harder test for him after the second seed defeated De Minaur for the 13th time in a row.
To be honest, each game (against Alcaraz) is unique. Even on the same surface (clay), it can shift, as we witnessed in Rome and Paris," Sinner remarked.
Another final, I have had a fantastic year. I am eagerly anticipating tomorrow. Additionally, it will help me determine my true level, but it is also a nice matchup to have before the off-season.
The four-time Grand Slam champion is on a 30-match winning streak on indoor hard courts, and Sinner has won his previous 18 sets in Turin.
The 24-year-old has not lost a set at the ATP Finals since he fell to Novak Djokovic in the 2023 final. De Minaur finishes the year feeling happier than he did after losing to Lorenzo Musetti in the group stage.
De Minaur mentioned that he had been in a “dark place” after that loss, which almost cost him a spot in the last four. He beat Taylor Fritz to set up the November 15 match against Sinner.
"I experienced a slight change in viewpoint. As I sit here now, I feel I should have won two games instead of one to end my Turin campaign," De Minaur told reporters.
In Sinner's first service game, De Minaur created three break points but could not convert any of them after saving two in the opening game of the semi-final.
When Sinner threatened to break in the seventh and ninth games, the Australian fought back again. However, the second seed ultimately struck the decisive blow at 5-5 and won the opening set.
Sinner became the youngest player to reach three finals at the season-ending event since Lleyton Hewitt in 2004 after jumping to a 4-0 lead in the second set and winning his eighth consecutive tournament title.

After defeating Alex de Minaur in the semi-finals on Saturday, Jannik Sinner is just one victory away from retaining his title at the ATP Finals.
The 26-year-old De Minaur put the top seed to the test early on before winning 7-5, 6-2 in Turin. Only four players in the Open Era have won 30 straight matches on indoor hardcourts at ATP events, a feat that Sinner has already accomplished. After Novak Djokovic, he is the only other player to go to the ATP Finals championship match without losing a serve during the competition. In 1991, the Tour began keeping serve statistics.
I am overjoyed. The year's final event, and it is wonderful to wrap things up this manner," Sinner added.
"The opening set was particularly difficult at the start of the match. He seemed to be serving really well, in my opinion.I took a pretty early break in the second set, and then I improved. I made an effort to be a little more assertive, and that really helped.
With 84% of the points gained behind his first serve, Sinner, who has already won 14 of the 16 matches played at the event, was especially remarkable. In addition, he made 30 winners compared to 22 unforced mistakes.
"I thought I was serving a lot better at the conclusion of last year than I had all year." It has been the same this year. He remarked.
"To be prepared for the upcoming season, I hope that his team and I will put in a lot of work during the preseason."I hope to be able to serve in this manner all season long.
Sinner had a perfect 12-0 record against his opponent going into the match, having lost just two sets to him, including one earlier this year in China. However, after defeating Taylor Fritz to earn his first victory over a top-10 player outside of a team tournament this season, de Minaur has gained confidence in Turin.
Because of this, the most recent match began with a dramatic opening set in which it was occasionally difficult to tell the two players apart. The Australian put on a strong show, and Sinner saw seven break-point opportunities come and go. Sinner did not break for the first time until 61 minutes into the match, when he fired a powerful backhand winner to take a 6-5 lead. He then hit a serve out wide that De Minaur returned out to secure the opening in the next game.
De Minaur was spotted gazing towards his camp and shrugging his shoulders as the Italian delivered his next blow at the beginning of the second frame, broke for the second time with a double-handed backhand winner down the line. It was a Sinner Masterclass from that point on, winning 17 of the 22 points to take a 4-0 lead. He surged to victory and finished the match with a winning forehand.
"It means a lot to me to make three straight finals here in Turin," Sinner thought.
"It is a terrific venue to end this lovely season, and it is a great setting for me to play tennis."
The only players to advance to all four Grand Slam finals and the ATP Finals final in the same season are Sinner, Roger Federer, and Novak Djokovic. Felix Auger-Aliassime or his rival Carlos Alcaraz, who recently dethroned him as the year's top seed, will be his next opponent. Alcaraz, who has won seven of their last eight Tour encounters, is Sinner's weak point. Wimbledon was the lone exception.
"I will undoubtedly do everything in my power to achieve the greatest outcome. Before the final, though, he remarked, "It has been an incredible week.
For the third time since Leyton Hewitt in 2004, Sinner, who is 24 years old, is the youngest man to make it to the year-end finals.
