The Roland Garros 2025 final between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz has opened the door to a recurring debate in the tennis world, the much-discussed comparison of players and eras. Many legends of this sport were impressed by the display of tennis for over five hours... but it is surprising, perhaps, that one of the most familiar faces of the 'Big Three' era places a Spaniard and an Italian at the top. This is Robin Soderling, who defeated Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer on the clay of Paris, but who surrendered to Jannik and Carlos after the final.

"When you thought tennis had reached its maximum potential with the Big Three, these guys, Carlos and Jannik, came along and took it to the next level. The pace and intensity were absolutely unreal." Weighty words that make the Swede join the ranks of names like McEnroe or Mouratoglou, also impressed by the tennis of these new two titans.

In the world of tennis, timing is as crucial a quality as many others. Perhaps Alexei Popyrin didn't imagine coming out of ATP Montreal 2024 as the Masters 1000 champion, but he has achieved it in one of the biggest surprises in an event of this category in a long time, defeating names like Dimitrov, Hurkacz, or Rublev. The week of his life allows him to join the Masters champion list with illustrious names that fans of this sport hold in high historical regard: Juan Martín del Potro, David Ferrer, Dominic Thiem, Marin Cilic, Stan Wawrinka, Tomas Berdych, Tommy Haas, or Robin Söderling, are some of the players that the Australian equals in this ranking. There are many more, but surely these names trigger nostalgic memories and remind us of how incredibly competitive the era of the Big Three was.

Richard Gasquet is putting an end to over twenty years of professional career in which he has experienced all kinds of situations, getting to know many players with whom he has shared the court and locker room. That is why the confessions made on the Pause podcast have been widely commented on. The genius from Bèziers was asked about the character of the Big 3 compared to other players, delving into whether any player was unpleasant in dealing with their peers.

"Roger, Novak, and Rafa are very polite, respectful, and pleasant guys with everyone. There were two guys who had great careers but cannot be compared to the Big 3, those with a more unpleasant attitude on the circuit, like Robin Soderling and Tomas Berdych," the Frenchman exclaimed.
