Shapo likes to beat himself.
He had Sinner down 0-3 in the third set then lost 9 consecutive games. He won the ace battle 12 - 4, then double faulted on the next serve. You can't do that against Sinner, he'll eat you with fava beans and a nice Chianti. There no player more frustrating to watch than Shapo, he's all talent but no guile.

Mingia FAA has made it to the SF.
And he beat the best defensive player in the ATP to do it. At first, i thought he was going to choke again, he ate four break attempts. Then he rallied taking two tie breaks on his way to victory against Alex (McLovin) De Minaur.
More than likely he'll face Sinner next.

FAA has 2-1 record over Sinner, his 2 wins were a few years ago, Sinner beat FAA recently.
well Sinner did not win. I feel he was a bit off Thoughts? Fave of the USO was the Venus/Leylah team. That was a lot of fun while it lasted
Alcaraz just looked better overall in the final. Which, to be fair, he usually does against Sinner.
Head-to-head, he's been the better player, even if not always ranked such overall.
Sinner had to bail on the Cinci final due to injury/illness. So it possible he was still nursing something at the USO. In the final is ball striking did not seem to have the crispness it normally has. Perhaps also the semis against FAA took a bigger chunk out of him then Carlitos romp over Musetti.
