"He's physically better, he has more game": Jannik Sinner is superior and likely to have better career than Carlos Alcaraz says Rennae Stubbs

Based off recent injury woes, Jannik Sinner is set to have the better career than Carlos Alcaraz. That is the opinion of Rennae Stubbs with the Spaniard recently going down injured at the Rio Open.

Sinner doesn't have the same issues and won the Australian Open before immediately claiming the Rotterdam Open. The Italian somewhat through recency bias has had claims that he is set to take over from Novak Djokovic and some like alluded to that he is set for a better career long term.

Stubbs claimed that it is due to the physicality of Sinner that Alcaraz lacks and has more game to make an all-rounded better player. Whether this will come to fruition will be seen in the months and years to come, but Sinner has certainly set his stall out.

"He [Carlos Alcaraz] has done his ankle, they're all hoping he's going to be back for his Netflix thing in Vegas, a lot of money on the line. But you know, Jesus man, it's a worry, it's a real worry," said Stubbs.

"When you think about if you had to put money on a player doing better in their career over the next decade between Sinner and Alcaraz, I'd put it on Sinner. I think he's physically better, I think he has more game. I actually think he's a better all-round player at the moment."
