Rafa was so erratic in Madrid 2022 that Madrid 2021 and Indian Wells 2022 would be the appropriate comparison. Both times he played good tennis. But after he was injured in the final of Indian Wells, the end of his career began.

Indeed Carlitos has improved dramatically & showed promise at such an early age. Even the Big 3 took whole lot of years to master the skill set. But Carlitos has changed the way Tennis will be played from now on. We saw Federer revolutionising in early 2000s & now this wonder is just nuts. He possess every trick & skill that a tennis fan wants to see on court. I feel lucky to witness Big 3 & now Carlitos carrying on the torch. Vamos Carlitos 💛

It’s quite standard for a player to improve significantly between ages 17-20/21. He was 17 until May of 2021 and now he’s 21. For most athletes, the late teens to 20/21 is when someone truly becomes a pro

Have you heard about Novak Djokovic !??? Mastered clay, mastered grass ,Mastered hard court. Carlos is young and its too early to give him the title of king .. and there’s no more big three right now its just about Novak and he is in his last few seasons. So basically big three are about to retire and not anymore in their prime.

@@rdshah0423 I specifically mentioned the time required to master all 3 surfaces. Novak is a legend no doubt and i do respect him alot infact i respect all these Big 3 cauz they changed he way Tennis will always be played. But Novak himself took alot of time and years to master his game. He wasnt natural infact he adapted and learned. Carlos is on another level and Novak too appreciates his talents. He is going to win many Grand Slams if he stays healthy for sure.

I can’t believe how good Rafa was just two years ago..I believe he won his last French in 2022. Old age and injuries have really gotten the best of him in two years…doesn’t look like the same player now…though flashes of greatness in the double today, he can’t sustain it. Just happy that Carlos is now taking over the mantle…hope destroys Chokovic in their next few meetings!
