Sinner gave Djokovic a taste of his own medicine by getting the ball back and making his opponent hit another shot. Sinner's got the complete package of shot making, athleticism. and composure. He's the real deal. I'd be shocked if he doesn't become the world #1 player in the coming year or two.

[@pureffm]

I think he will become number 1 this season.

[@kevtn8]

To show how great Sinner has become you only need to look at what he's done to Djokovic over their last 4-5 matches. He's only player on tour that has consistently beaten Djokovic over the last 2 years. If anyone thought this was luck think again. Sinner has every single attribute physically to dominate. It was only about his mind and mental fortitude that he needed to prove. Beating Djokovic soundly at his favorite grand slam was it. If healthy and focused, he has a chance to do some crazy things in this sport similar to what the big Three have done. The main advantage for Sinner is that most of his rivals are either older or just not good enough against him. He can potentially steamroll the grand slams over next 10 years and still be only 32 years old. Anything is possible and it's foolish to look too far ahead but the Sinner era is here.

I honestly think that djokovic does get the nerves more than people think, most commonly when he senses that his opponent is at peak enthusiasm. Alcaraz was at this form last season, but it’s so hard to attain for more than a few months. Djokovic is still the most consistent at the moment.
