As long as the Roland Garros 2025 final lasted 5h29min, the truth is we all wanted more. The following hours were in shock until Monday arrived, and nostalgia began to seep in. This can only be cured by listening to the experts, those who experienced the match live, even though they already had memorable experiences on these grand stages. For example, we wanted to echo the words of Boris Becker on TNT Sports, where he focused a lot on the pain that the Italian may feel after letting such an opportunity slip away.

“For Sinner, this match is brutal, losing a Grand Slam final with match points is very tough, he even served for the match. I don't think there is anything worse than that, although he can be proud of his performance. The truth is that he behaved like a champion, fought, and played his best match on a clay court to date. That will happen again, maybe Jannik will be luckier next time,” commented the 57-year-old German. However, if there is one thing Boris is certain about, it is that such a brilliant match can only be achieved with a magnanimous version of both contenders.

“We must thank both, it was almost a miracle that Carlos ended up winning this match, since Jannik had it in his hands, he was playing almost perfect tennis,” added the man from Leumen. "I think it has been the best match I have ever witnessed live, the level of tennis has been unreal. It is a great lesson for children at home, the way they behaved and the attitude they displayed all the time, they did not make a single excuse during five and a half hours. Both found solutions, hit the ball perfectly, we cannot thank them enough. It's no longer about the length of the match, it's about how they played and moved. They gave 100%, for the first time in my life I would have loved to see a tie,” emphasized the man who never managed to win a title on clay.

THE LEGACY OF THE BIG3

With six Grand Slams under his belt, Becker is starting to realize that both Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner will eventually surpass his figures on the four major stages, as well as weeks at world number 1. Yet, before them, all members of the Big3 had already done it, who currently occupy the top of the world in this sport. It was precisely the common thread of the German's last reflection, acknowledging that the emotions experienced in this Roland Garros 2025 final had only been felt in the past with the geniuses from Basel, Belgrade, and Manacor.

“We have experienced this kind of clashes with Federer, Djokovic, and Nadal, those epic duels accompanied us for over fifteen years, as this Sunday was exactly the level at which I saw Carlos and Jannik. The match was incredible, I feel sorry that one of the two had to lose, but these are the matches you train for, the matches that make you fall in love with this sport,” stated one of the most precocious tennis players that the male tennis world has gifted us in the Open Era.
