In the Women's singles, I'll choose Sabalenka...the way I see it, there's only one player who can beat Sabalenka...and that player is Sabalenka... when she is not coughing up 20 double faults and if she is playing at 90%...
On the men's side, I'm going way out on a limb choosing Taylor Fritz...don't know why, just think it may be his time.

While we're on the topic, it's worth noting that, with today's final, Carlos Alcaraz will truly be the big name to beat.

Alcaraz has been showing excellent physical fitness and strength, and we could clearly see this in today's match between him and Sinner. Sinner will need to work hard...

In the women's competition, Sabalenka remains a strong name, also a strong one to beat. She has a strong, intense game with excellent ball control, exchanges, and very efficient serves...

This next season will be exciting...

Though it’s a real long way, I won’t be surprised to see one of them (especially Alcaraz because of the variety in his game) to cross atleast 20 grandslam titles!

Both Sabalenka and Alcaraz deserved to win the last Grand Slam of the season.However, I´m sure Sinner will have a revenge in Melbourne next year.

Boy, was I wrong on the men's side!!! Carlos and Jannick are a few levels higher than all the others...they have split the last 8 Grand Slams 4 each...looks like the Big 3 have left men's tennis in good hands with an incredible rivalry. I watched the Felix Auger-Aliassime match...Felix had a great tournament up to the semi-finals and was full of confidence...he played well, the best he has played for quite some time, yet it was still not good enough to beat Sinner. I think we may be seeing these two in the finals of the grand slams for the foreseeable future.

Jannik Sinner was unable to beat Carlos, who became the fourth player in history to win two or more Grand Slam titles on each of the three surfaces.The match was delayed by 50 minutes due to increased security measures related to the arrival of US President Donald Trump.

One thing that's very clear is that Sinner and Alcaraz are at a much higher level than the others, as we can see from their scores.
I think it'll still be a while before we have a Big 3, or something like that, anytime soon.
But I hope we have a Big 5 to create as much excitement as we used to...

I confess that I love watching Iga play because besides learning a lot from her game, it's super cool to appreciate her beauty... lol
I think she's one of the most charming in the WTA.

And look, back in the days of Nadal, Federer, and that whole gang, we had some players fighting for positions in the Top 10.
Today, our Top 10 is almost a Top 2.
Alcaraz and Sinner are definitely ahead of the rest.
But I believe we'll have two or three more who could secure a Top 5 spot...
