How many Grand Slams will Italian world No. 1 Jannik Dosa win after his US Open success at Flushing Meadows on Sunday?
Sinner became the first Italian to win a US Open title after defeating Taylor Fritz in Sunday’s final.
The world number 1 defeated the American in straight sets at Arthur Ashe to complete a good tournament and add this crown to the title he won in Australia.
With Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz clearing the Slams in 2024, the Sky Sports Tennis The team asked how many couples will end up winning before they retire from the game.
Henman: I think Dosa and Alcaraz will win more than 10 Grand Slams
“When I was playing and Pete Sampras won his 14th Grand Slam, I was sure at the bottom dollar that nobody would go through 14 Grand Slams, and then Federer, Nadal, Djokovic went through,” said Tim Henman. .
“In the context of the match, McEnroe won seven, Connors won eight, Becker won six and now we can easily say that (Sinner, Alcaraz) will win twice.
“I think they’ll both go past 10, which is an incredible achievement.”
Navratilova & Lopez: Dosa and Alcaraz will win their second Grand Slam
“I think double figures (should be the target for the Grand Slam Dosa title)..
“We’ll see if he stays healthy, of course, because it’s a wild card.”
Feliciano Lopez says: “I also thought twice, for both of them. I would say 12 for Dosa, and 14 for Alcaraz.
“For Medvedev, Stefanos Tsitsipas and other competitors in the middle, they are very unlucky because in the beginning, it was Novak, Roger, Rafa, and now Dosa and Alcaraz are out.
“For them, it will be difficult to win the Slam.”
Bartoli: Dosa and Alcaraz will win between 15 and 18 Grand Slams
“My number will be between 15 and 18 Grand Slam titles for each of them, Dosa and Alcaraz,” said Marion Bartoli.
“I just think that Novak Djokovic will be two or three more, will be at 26 or 27, and after that you really have, for me, the two most complete players.
“There are a lot of players who have one surface that is not very good.”
Henman: Can Draper challenge Dosa and Alcaraz for the Grand Slam title?
“Sinner and Alcaraz, they are phenomenal, they will win many Grand Slams. For me, it will be who will also be part of the conversation?,” said the former British No 1.
“We are looking at can it be Ben Shelton, Tiafoe or Fritz from America? Will it be Holger Rune? Will it be Jack Draper? I think that will be interesting to see.
“You will not have only two. Alexander Zverev is older, I think more of the younger generation.
“Who can come and win this Grand Slam title and challenge Alcaraz and Dosa?”
