Video - Drop shots, down-the-line backhands, volleys: Alcaraz and Sinner delight in training!
Ahead of the ATP Finals, Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz delivered a highly intense training session in Turin.
Under the roof of the Pala Alpitour, a select few were treated to a preview of what could be the Masters final: Sinner versus Alcaraz. The spontaneous applause from the spectators present highlighted the quality of the show on display.
And in this final rehearsal, it was the Italian who gained the upper hand, winning 6-3 in a practice set.
But if this training session was just a potential preview, both players will have their work cut out for them in their respective groups before that. Sinner has been drawn with Zverev, Shelton, and Auger-Aliassime/Musetti, while Alcaraz will have to face Djokovic, Fritz, and de Minaur.
