The growing rivalry between two of tennis’ hottest prospects Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz has fans gripped and the former hopes the pair can compete with each other at the highest level for many years to come.
Alcaraz emerged victorious in the most recent meeting to seal victory in the Indian Wells semi-final, ending Sinner’s 19-match winning streak in the process, before beating Daniil Medvedev in the final.
After eight meetings between the duo, they each have four wins, with Alcaraz also prevailing in last year’s semi-final in California.
Alcaraz is the top seed in Miami and will face Aleksandar Vukic or Roberto Carballes Baena in his first match, while second seed Sinner is on the other side of the draw, meaning a mouth-watering rematch is possible.
Sinner, 23, insists he has nothing but respect for his 20-year-old nemesis and looks forward to many more battles with the Spaniard in the future.
