We've waited long enough
The 1st Alcaraz-Sinner of 2026 is upon us

The No. 1 ranking is on the line.
Alcaraz leads 10-6 and 3-1 on clay

Quite the #RolandGarros poster this year

So great to be at Barnes Tennis Center, with no chain link fences impeding viewing. Beautiful morning to start 1st rd of J300 NA Regional. Teodor Davidov, who I first saw here in 2021, still doing his no-backhand thing

If you had to pick one man to play a match for your life, he's the obvious choice, as I wrote in NYC

Because of the security measures associated with the presence of President Trump, the #USOpen men's singles final between Alcaraz and Sinner has been pushed back half an hour to 230 pm ET or 830 pm in Spain and Italy

Great, random and ultimately meaningless stat of the night:
This is the 1st time in the history of women's #tennis, dating to 1884, that all four singles semifinalists at a major have surnames that end with the letter "a"

From a double-bagel defeat at #Wimbledon to Champagne and caviar in New York. American Amanda Anisimova bounces back in a big way to defeat Iga Swiatek 6-4 6-3 and reach her 1st #USOpen semifinal. Got two big net-cord winners down the stretch but earned this one. Held her nerve and used her skills
Feel for Taylor Fritz, no doubt, but marvel at Novak Djokovic at age 38 beating nearly all of the world's best players in their prime
Don't see him getting past Alcaraz and Sinner back to back but even if he does not, this season, with at least four semis at the majors, is a remarkable achievement
