Alcaraz heads into final as slight favourite
Former world No.1 and tennis expert Mats Wilander believes Alcaraz heads into the French Open final as a slight favourite against Sinner.
‘Sinner and Alcaraz have shown in the past two years they are the best players in the world,’ Wilander told TNT Sports.
‘They played here last year in the semi-finals, Sinner was up two sets then Carlos Alcaraz came back to win in five.
‘Everyone knows that when Sinner and Alcaraz play, they have unbelievable matches because they move so well and hit the ball so hard.
‘Alcaraz probably goes in as a little bit of a favourite as his head to head is a little bit better than Jannik Sinner’s but it is very open.
‘I can’t believe we’re getting the final between number one and number two – Sinner v Alcaraz – that’s a dream final for me.’
