Sinner added the Miami Open to the Australian Open and Rotterdam Open won this season, while Alcaraz has only won Indian Wells since claiming Wimbledon last year.

"[Tennis] has clearly received the baton, because the two [Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner] are showing that they will be difficult to beat for their rivals. [Carlos Alcaraz] still seems a little better than Sinner," said Toni Nadal as per Cadena SER.
