I was searching mentally for his name and my brain kind of autocorrected Roger Federer to Ferrero Rocher. I'll never be the same again.

JOAN SOLSONA Carlos Alcaraz,聽que regresaba este domingo a una final siete meses despu茅s de ceder la de Cincinnati ante Novak Djokovic, no ha dejado escapar la oportunidad de coronarse por segunda vez consecutiva en Indian Wells. El 煤ltimo en conseguirlo fue Djokovic, en las ediciones de 2014 y 2015, con Roger Federer en el otro lado de la red. La victoria del espa帽ol ante Daniil Medvedev,聽por 7-6(5) y 6-1, le permite levantar su quinto torneo de categor铆a Masters 1000 con 20 a帽os. Alcaraz sale del desierto californiano reforzado ten铆sticamente y a nivel de puntos. Es el n煤mero dos del ranking de entradas ATP, s贸lo por detr谩s de Djokovic, y el tres de la Race 2024, siguiendo la estela de Jannik Sinner y Medvedev. Los dos finalistas ven铆an de jugar tres sets en sus respectivas semifinales.聽Carlitos se dej贸 2 horas y 5 minutos por los 18 minutos m谩s de Daniil, que termin贸 m谩s tarde porque su partido cerr贸 la jornada del s谩bado marcada por la lluvia matinal. Medvedev empez贸 m谩s fuerte. A los 17 minutos,聽el marcador reflejaba un 3-0 para 茅l. El inicio recordaba al de la semifinal con Sinner. Carlitos estren贸 su casillero y depart铆a con su entrenador Juan Carlos Ferrero. "Hay que calmarse y ver las cosas claras, vamos", era la indicaci贸n. "Peloteo hasta que te la deje bien y entonces vas con todo", continuaba. Dicho y hecho:聽'break' para el espa帽ol para situar el 3-2. Pu帽o en alto del futuro campe贸n, que hab铆a solventado una situaci贸n complicada. En la grada compet铆an en belleza Charlize Theron y Maria Sharapova. En la silla del 谩rbitro volv铆a a sentarse el experimentado Mohamed Lahyani, un juez de silla que hace re铆r y mucho al tenista de El Palmar. El ruso no tuvo la chispa suficiente para hacer frente a un rival superior,聽que le infligi贸 la cuarta derrota en seis cara a cara entre ambos. Medvedev, con 20 coronas como profesional,聽no desempolva su vitrina desde el TMS de Roma, en su odiada tierra batida. Las condiciones de juego del Valle de Coachella le van como anillo al dedo al pupilo de Carlos Ferrero.聽El bote alto de la pelota multiplica la efectividad de sus golpes sin tener que buscar ganadores. A Alcaraz se le escap贸 una oportunidad de 5-4. Se le march贸 un rev茅s un palmo fuera.聽Inmediatamente despu茅s gan贸 el punto del torneo con un 'banana shot' que hubiera firmado Rafael Nadal en su mejor 茅poca. La grada de la central estaba poblada de banderas espa帽olas.聽La 'Alcarazman铆a da la vuelta al mundo. Medvedev hab铆a llegado vivo a la muerte s煤bita ante un contrincante que resbala en el cemento al estilo Novak Djokovic. El moscovita no tuvo la chispa suficiente para hacer frente a un rival superior,聽que le infligi贸 la cuarta derrota en seis cara a cara entre ambos. Medvedev, con 20 coronas como profesional,聽no desempolva su vitrina desde el TMS de Roma, en su odiada tierra batida. "Punto a punto", le recordaba Ferrero. Su disc铆pulo se aplic贸 en ello y se impuso en la muerte s煤bita.聽El segundo set fue un mon贸logo. Se adelant贸 por 3-0 y su rival decidi贸 hincar la rodilla y encararse con alg煤n aficionado al grito de "c谩llate".

Who are the new Big Three? Men's tennis has an exciting future thanks to a rising trio
Tumblr media
A week ago, after Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner played the point of the year so far on Miami's Hard Rock court - complete with exchanges of 80 mph cross-court forehands, Sinner hooking the ball back from behind him, Alcaraz falling and recovering, and the kind of exquisite drop shots and physics-defying sliding we've come to expect from both players, culminating in a triumphant Sinner whipping up the crowd after a fruitless dive from Alca
Are you guys indeed from Earth? The posts "What in the Alien" by Aryna Sabalenka and "What in the Alien" by Bianca Andreescu exemplify this curiosity about extraterrestrial endeavors. While John Isner proclaimed, "Tennis is in fine hands," Jessica Pegula called it "absolute craziness."
The 21-year-old Sinner, the 19-year-old Alcaraz, and the 19-year-old Dane Holger Rune are lighting up the ATP Tour like no other players have since those three. The fact that Alcaraz is also Spanish makes comparisons to Rafael Nadal inevitable, something that Alcaraz's coach, Juan Carlos Ferrero, needs to be more helpful. Alcaraz and Nadal have known one another since Alcaraz was 13 and won a victory on Nadal's Junior Tour; they both have mental toughness.
Born in Italy close to the Austrian border, Gucci collaborator and peacemaker Stefano Sinner has been likened to Roger Federer for his composed on-court demeanor. Although his style of play, which includes an amazing ability to turn defense into attack, is maybe more akin to Novak Djokovic's, Sinner hit a down-the-line forehand winner at the Australian Open that was so close to a famous Federer point that there is a side-by-side comparison on YouTube. Similar to Djokovic's skill on the skis, Sinner's balance is superb. Nevertheless, Rune is reminiscent of Novak Djokovic in that he has a Marmite personality and can sometimes be a bit arrogant. Nonetheless, each player brings a unique set of skills and styles to the court.
The best men's tennis players have skipped a generation. Mid-20s players who were intended to represent a new era and the passing of the torch have fallen short of lofty expectations. To a greater extent than Andrey Rublev, Casper Ruud, and Matteo Berrettini, Daniil Medvedev, Alexander Zverev, and Stefanos Tsitsipas have realized their potential. The collective has yet to come close to challenging the triumvirate of Nadal, Federer, and Djokovic.
Against the guys who were supposed to be their swan song, the Big Three hold dominating head-to-head leads (with the exception of Federer against Zverev and Rublev, who have edged him by one match each). Medvedev, who defeated Djokovic in the 2021 US Open final, is the only potential successor to have already won a grand slam (but still trails him five to nine in head-to-heads). Even late in their careers, three of the aforementioned six have not yet won a Master's.
See how this stacks up against Sinner, Alcaraz, and Rune's earlier demonstrations. Rune, at the age of 19, defeated Djokovic in the final of the Paris Masters last year to become the youngest champion of the tournament since Boris Becker. Alcaraz, the youngest year-end No. 1, won the Madrid Open after defeating Nadal and Djokovic in consecutive days. He also has three Masters titles and one grand slam trophy to his name. In an exciting match at Wimbledon, Sinner won the first two sets against Djokovic. He has also reached the finals of the Masters twice and possesses the hardest backhand on tour in terms of RPM. He's older than the Big Three yet has more match points saved. All of them are in the top 10, and some of them, like Felix Auger-Aliasime and Taylor Fritz, have even surpassed those two in terms of potential.
The early success of the three prodigies isn't the only thing that has fans psyched. The encounters between Sinner and Alcaraz are as exciting as rides on a roller coaster and as entertaining as a Broadway musical. Alcaraz "feels something different from the crowd when the two play together." Their five-hour quarterfinal at the US Open was the year's best contest. They have met six times on the professional circuit, and their head-to-head record is tied at 2-2, portending a fierce future rivalry. Like Stan Wawrinka and Casper Ruud, Rune has a strong personality and is a lot of fun to watch because of his tantrums and feuds on the court. Others have said that his crazy, McEnroe-like intensity is what the sport needs to revive its flagging appeal, and they could be right. After years of relentless baseline power-hitting, their variation is refreshing, bringing drop shots and net playback.
Naturally, in sports, there are no guarantees. There is growing concerned about Alcaraz's injury history, with the latest setback coming in the Rio Open final. Sin needs to work on his erratic ball toss, which weakens his serve. After his breakup with Patrick Mouratoglou, Rune needs to learn to control his violent tendencies (in fairness, he has settled somewhat, thankfully not to the detriment of the spectacle). Many athletes who show promise as teenagers eventually lose their form.
The Big Three, on the other hand, have agreed that this new group is the real deal. With Federer having already knotted his bandana for the final time and Nadal due to following soon following the birth of his kid and owing to a severe foot issue, only Djokovic and a gloriously resurgent Andy Murray will be around to halt the flood of the millennials, including top online casino. Tennis, in Isner's opinion, is in excellent hands.

Fay Compton and Peter Reynolds in I Vinti (Michelangelo Antonioni, 1953)
Cast: Etchika Choureau, Jean-Pierre Mocky, Jacques Sempey, Henri Poirier, Franco Interlenghi, Anna Maria Ferrero, Evi Maltagliati, Eduardo Ciannelli, Peter Reynolds, Fay Compton, Eileen Moore. Screenplay: Suso Cecchi D鈥橝mico, Michelangelo Antonioni, Diego Fabbri, Turi Vasile, Roger Nimier, Giorgio Bassani. Cinematography: Enzo Serafin. Production design: Roland Berthon, Gianni Polidori. Film editing: Eraldo Da Roma. Music: Giovanni Fusco.聽 Why did they burn Joan of Arc? a character asks in Michelangelo Antonioni's I Vinti. Because she got involved in politics, another replies. It's a response befitting the disengaged youth that are the focus of the three episodes in Antonioni's film, the title of which is often translated as The Vanquished. They are the postwar generation in Europe, deprived of the political fervor that drove their parents' generation into war. But Antonioni has another reason for sniping at politics: It interfered with his efforts to make and distribute the film, which was banned in France until 1963 and never received theatrical distribution in the United Kingdom, even though two of the episodes were filmed in those countries. One of the reasons for the bans was legal: The episodes were based on actual incidents and could have led to prosecution on various grounds. But Antonioni was also forced to change his original plan for the Italian episode, which was to have been about a violent act of political protest, and instead make his protagonist a kind of rebel without a cause: a young man who turns to cigarette smuggling as a reaction against his wealthy parents. The film as released also is weighed down by a didactic prologue explaining that these are stories about the plague of what was then called "juvenile delinquency" -- a heavy-handedness uncharacteristic of Antonioni as artist. The first of the three episodes takes place in France: A group of high school students play hooky, telling their parents that they're going on a class field trip, and instead go to the countryside where, in the ruins of a chateau, a boy who has boasted of how much money he has -- he ostentatiously lights his pipe with a five-dollar bill -- is shot and robbed, only to reveal that the money is fake. The Italian episode features Franco Interlenghi as Claudio, whose venture into cigarette smuggling is busted by the police. On the run, he shoots and kills a guard, but he also takes a fall from which he apparently suffers internal injuries. Rescued by his girlfriend (Anna Maria Ferrero), he returns home, but dies before the police can arrest him. In the English episode, a police reporter (Patrick Barr) for a London newspaper receives a call from a man (Peter Reynolds) who claims to have discovered a body in a park and wants to be paid for his story. Relishing the celebrity his story brings him, he eventually admits to having murdered the woman (Fay Compton), a prostitute, and is sentenced to death. Slight as the three episodes are, they are vivified by sharp writing and by the director's increasing virtuosity in placing his camera. The cinematography is by Enzo Serafin. Granted, what we often watch the early films of great directors for are signs of their future brilliance, and especially in the English section there are some striking foreshadowings of Blow-Up (1966). But making allowances for some of the restrictions under which Antonioni was working, I Vinti is impressive on its own. I was struck by the Hitchcockian humor in the English episode, when the reporter tangles with his unseen but hilariously incompetent switchboard operator.聽

SOLO No. 40 doesn鈥檛 disappoint. From the photos, to the layout and art direction, to the print quality and paper, it is very solid. Benjamin Jorgensen secured the cover with a bs nosepick on some rooftop transition that looks amazing but realistically was probably a nightmare to skate, shot by Felix Adler.
The first feature is an interview with Jost Arens, a German Red Bull contest skater, skating spots atypical to what you鈥檇 imagine someone of that description skating. The fakie flip over the splashing water seen here is an example. Next is the Carhartt WIP Paris trip with a ton of sick photos by Clement Le Gall. The team manager himself, Joseph Biais, has a couple photos in it, including a crazy drop down to bs nosebluntslide, seen here. Pepe Tirelli鈥檚 gap 5-0 and Felipe Bartolome鈥檚 bridge ride were also noteworthy. The interview with Farid Ulrich gave the perspective of a DIY guy that skates for Primitive that is not the perspective of a DIY guy or what you think of someone that skate for primitive. Fast forward to Victor Casca-Rigny鈥檚 limited word interview and the photos speak enough. I鈥檓 especially partial to the kickflip boardslide on the bumpy fence shot by Roger Ferrero, footage that I鈥檝e seen somewhere recently. The issue ended strongly with the Skatedeluxe trip to Athens, Greece, shot by Dennis Scholz. Martin Sandberg鈥檚 double rail hippy jump was tight, but what really got my attention was his back lip polejam 270 revert up the hydrant!
Solid issue guys, looking forward to the next! You can pick up a copy in the US from Theories of Atlantis.
