After the big three tennis players, who can represent the new generation of players to compete with them?

Tim has always been regarded as Nadal's successor on the clay court. However, this year he also showed great strength in the Australian Open hard court. After successively selecting Fritz, Gail Monfil and Nadal, he entered the semi-finals. Tim beat Zverev 3-6, 6-4, 7-6(3) and 7-6(4). For the first time in his career, he will challenge seven-time Australian Open champion Djokovic. Although Zvilev advanced smoothly, he did not meet the top ten players in the world in the first five rounds. In this game, compared with Tim's flexible tactics, the Germans can only deal with their opponents through a strong serve and a baseline stalemate. Even in the case of the bottom line stalemate, Zverev's offensive firepower today is slightly thin, and it is not playing well, which has become the weakness of the stalemate between the two sides. In addition to skills and tactics, the psychological gap between the two sides is the key to success. In the final round of the victory over Nadal, Tim showed stronger psychology than the Spanish king. In today's game, Zverev made a comeback after the second and third sets were broken, but failed to pursue victory.

However, in the two more crucial deciding games, the Germans have been in a passive state, and the dominant service at the crucial moment is no longer effective. After defeating Zvilev, Tim won the hard grand slam final for the first time, and will also shoulder the heavy responsibility of hitting the first men's singles grand slam champion after 199. In fact, nothing has been achieved on the grand slam stage. Only Raoni, Medvedev and Tim had reached the Grand Slam finals (twice), but now the Austrian will challenge the Grand Slam title for the third time in the finals. The pattern of "Big Three" has been nearly 2 years since its establishment, and the golden age of ordinary professional players is about 1 years, while the Big Three has survived two generations of players. Just like that popular joke, the Big Three born in the 198s not only controlled the contemporary players, but also made the players in the 199s old, so that men's tennis directly skipped the 199s and came to the 2s. With the loosening of the Big Three and the rise of superstars, who will become the new generation ATP king? With the rise of a group of superstars born around 2,

the pattern of "Big Three" is difficult to maintain in any case. There is no doubt that Federer, the oldest, will be the first to fall behind among the Big Three. After 45 days of estrangement, his comeback in Doha last month caused many worries and doubts. Most people's knowledge is that Federer will never return to the top. At the beginning of this year, tennis journalist Ubaldo, who has been interviewed by more than 16 Grand Slams, predicted that Federer would fall out of the top ten in the world, and his best chance of winning this year is in his own country, Basel. Let's take a look at Nadal. In this year's Australian Open, Nadal played exhausted with Sisyphus in the fifth game and missed the semi-final with 5-7 points. After the game, Nadal said his back was uncomfortable. In fact, physical fitness has become the biggest shortcoming that limits him from going further on the signing list. After the Australian Open, Nadal began to rest and adjust for a month and a half.

In Monte Carlo, also in the quarter-finals, he struggled again, and this time lublin beat him. In Barcelona, Nadal suffered three tough battles in the first two games. He saved match points in the three-set final against Sisyphus, and Nadal struggled to win the championship. Red clay is Nadal's back garden. If he doesn't win at least one championship before the French Open, the future of the French Open is really worrying. At the beginning of the year, Ubaldo even predicted that Nadal would not win the 14th French Open this year, and would not win any more titles except clay.
