The Spaniard expressed himself more clearly about the Italian's positive doping test and showed some doubt about the reasons why Jannik could continue playing tennis.
The day of Thursday, August 29th at the US Open will be full of excitement with matches that no one will want to miss. We are getting into the action and the world's best will have to take another step towards the second week. Jannik Sinner will be the first to kick off the day at Arthur Ashe when he faces Alex Michelsen. Following him, Iga Swiatek will square off against the Japanese player Shibahara. In the afternoon session, Naomi Osaka and Muchova will have an interesting showdown before the face-off between Carlos Alcaraz and Botic Van de Zandschulp. Other players we shouldn't miss are Daniil Medvedev, Elena Rybakina, Sebastian Korda, Jasmine Paolini, and Tommy Paul.

Three months ago, Saudi Arabia announced its latest and most ambitious step into the world of tennis. It was the Six Kings Slam, an exhibition that promised to bring together the crème de la crème of racket sports, with the biggest prize money in history. We hadn't heard anything more about this event... until today: Saudi authorities have confirmed that the event will take place during October 16 and 19, with the 18th as a rest day (the ATP does not allow an exhibition to be held for three consecutive days). The participants remain Rafael Nadal, Carlos Alcaraz, Novak Djokovic, Jannik Sinner, Daniil Medvedev, and Holger Rune... and the monetary figures are, to say the least, staggering: 1.5 million euros guaranteed for each player and 6 million for the winner, the largest prize in the history of this sport. Quite something.

Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner maintain a good relationship, despite many criticizing the Spanish player's response in the press conference prior to the 2024 US Open when asked about the doping issue involving the Italian. Both were training on adjacent courts this Wednesday and, at one point, the player from Murcia teased Sinner, telling him that his brother had a better serve than him.

The Dutch player is not going through his best moment, but he is looking forward to having fun in the second round of the US Open against the player from Murcia. Does he see himself with possibilities?
Carlos Alcaraz would become the third player in the Open Era (alongside Laver and Nadal) to achieve a triple crown in the same season in Paris, London, and New York if he were to win the US Open 2024. In a conversation with ESPN, he was asked about his feelings regarding this possibility, and the Murcian surprised with a humorous response. "I will try to pretend like I never heard that," he said before admitting that it would be a great feat and that it's challenging to stay 100% focused because each round becomes more demanding.

Carlos Alcaraz started the 2024 US Open with a victory against Li Tu, thus achieving his 60th win in Grand Slam tournaments at just 21 years old. Digging deeper into his records, the player from Murcia needed 70 matches to reach this milestone, a speed that historically only surpasses a genius like John McEnroe, who needed 69. Yes, folks, the El Palmar prodigy is operating at these levels, a player who keeps breaking records for precocity in every tournament he plays. Will we see him in New York lifting his third major of the season?
60 - Among players to begin their career in the Open Era, only John McEnroe (69) has achieved 60 Men's Singles match wins at GS events in fewer matches than Carlos Alcaraz (70), following the latter's win over Li Tu. Phenom.#USOpen | @usopen @carlosalcaraz @atptour pic.twitter.com/R6UGWJSsVT

Good experience for Li Tu during the recent early morning at the US Open 2024 in his first-round match against Carlos Alcaraz. Besides taking a set from him and showing his level to compete in Grand Slams, the Australian later shared a funny anecdote on ESPN's table when asked about his feelings facing the Spaniard at Arthur Ashe. His response couldn't have been more genuine.
"I'm not going to lie, when I saw him come out in his jacket, I thought, 'Okay'. Then we went for the coin toss, he took off his jacket, and I thought, 'This guy is a specimen!' What I thought was that he was a beast, I couldn't stop looking at the definition of his shoulder and all his veins," humorously replied the 28-year-old tennis player.
"Not gonna lie, he came out in his jacket and I was like, 'Okay'. We go to the coin toss, he took his jacket off, I was, like, "Dude, this guy's s SPECIMEN!"
