He is 23-years-old and Alcaraz just 21. They ended up sharing the year’s Grand Slam titles, and - with an eye to the future - that is an ominous thought for the rest of the world.
"I know we have been waiting for a champion for a long time so I'm sorry I couldn't get it done this time," said Fritz.

"He's stepped up a role and I feel like he's taking everything as seriously as he can and fair play to him, that shows he wants to stay."
Sinner was ruled to bear pelo fault or negligence for the positive tests by the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA), which found he had been inadvertently contaminated by his physiotherapist.
