“Let’s try not to let them win every Slam from now on” : Felix Auger Aliassime calls for urgency in stopping Alcaraz and Sinner from winning more Grand Slams
Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner shared the spoils in 2024, as both players won two Grand Slam titles each. While the Spaniard won the French Open and the Wimbledon, Jannik Sinner claimed the Australian Open and US Open titles. Felix Auger Aliassime has called for some urgency to stop the two players from dominating further in 2025.
Carlos Alcaraz has now claimed four Grand Slam titles in the last three seasons, as Jannik Sinner opened his tally in 2024. With the likes of Rafael Nadal retiring, and Novak Djokovic in the final stretch of his career, the two youngsters are certainly poised to take over the reigns.
Jannik Sinner recently arrived in Australia, as he looks to defend his title at the 2025 Australian Open. The Italian made a comeback of all sorts against Daniil Medvedev in the finals last year, where he came back to lift the title from being two sets own.
Felix Auger Aliassime says rest of the other players cannot allow Sinner and Alcaraz to win more
Felix Auger Aliassime believes that Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner would pull further away from rest of the field if they are not stopped in 2025.
“There is a sense of urgency in a way if we want to stay in touch with them. Alcaraz is at four Grand Slams now and then [Jannik Sinner] at two. There is a sense of urgency, like okay you can’t let them win more, if they do, congrats to them but they will just start pulling away. Let’s try not to let them win every Slam from now on,” Felix Auger-Aliassime said during an interview with The Slice Tennis
Carlos Alcaraz defeated Jannik Sinner in each of their three meetings in 2024, which also includes a five-set semifinal victory at the French Open. Their last meeting came at the China Open, where Alcaraz managed to get over the line in the final set tiebreaker.
The two players are clearly a step or two ahead of the rest of the field. Hence, it is no surprise that Felix Auger Aliassime is worried about the duo asserting their dominance on the tour, just like the Big Three have done over the last two decades.
