Alcaraz vs Auger-Aliassime, tennis fans

Great match so far--just midway through the 1st set, but it's been fantastic so far with both players making incredible shots and playing at a very high level. I may be wrong, but I think Auger-Asiassime is one of the few top players to have beaten Alcaraz every time they've played.

I only caught like 2//3 of the final set, but I was feeling sorry for the tennis ball because they were hitting them so hard. Really top notch stuff.

Impressive.

One of the commentators tonight encouraged people to come to live matches, because tv doesn’t do justice to the speed of shots. When I go, what I find most astonishing is how well pros defend. 99% of the time I would never be able to get to those balls, let alone hit them back well!
