Six Kings Slam, there are only two kings left. The usual two, Carlos Alcaraz – world number 1 – and Jannik Sinner, number 2, the pinnacle of this increasingly global sport. In Riyadh, host of the richest tournament of the year, a pointless exhibition with an incredible prize pool, the two stars performed their task without difficulty. They were two quick 6-4, 6-2 sets, easy for those unfamiliar with tennis. Because Fritz and Djokovic are two global giants, but compared to these two extraterrestrials, they appear full of limitations, inferior from the first to the last point.

The epilogue tomorrow evening (6pm): Sinner must bounce back after the defeats in Rome, Paris and New York, he appeared in great form and this gives Italian fans hope.
