#do sincaraz play doubles

[schumi-nadal]

Everybody is talking about Fedal and Sincaraz, but where are the Filton shippers?

also thoughts on jannik/carlos/holger as an entity? i know the need for constant trios in tennis is kind of annoying but they are interesting to me ok

no I totally get that, as much as I hate the need to find a "new big three", trios are SO compelling and well, the three of them have no shortage of compelling dynamics

I actually just made a post about this but carlos and holger being born six days apart is just ridiculous. there had to be some kind of fate involved because WHAT are the chances. that video of them playing doubles when they were kids is so dear to me, and I love how holger is like "yeah you could just tell we were better" because a) that's a very holger thing of him to say and b) is he wrong? no. also the way holger was defending carlos earlier this year just warmed my heart, it's always lovely to see them supporting each other

and ah, jannik and holger. "find the positives." there is not a single tennis player who manages to frustrate jannik quite like holger does and it's just so funny. obviously they had all that monte carlo drama which was just so unnecessary like??? just don't hit the ball at him??? do you know how annoying you have to be to make jannik sinner complain to the umpire. and then there was the atp finals where jannik easily could have tanked to stop novak from making the semis but instead he played an insane epic three setter, after which holger wrote a very long congratulation story and called him a "national hero." and then this year, back in monte carlo... that match had everything. and then of course there were holger's tweets, which weren't directed at jannik but he was definitely involved. they're so funny. "jesus christ 🙄"

and sincaraz. oh sincaraz. I don't think I need to ramble about this one lol, and if I did we'd be here all day

the tennis these three play, both against each other and others, is truly amazing to watch. I'm excited to see how they develop as players and as people in the years to come!

Carlitos truly healed playing doubles at both davis and laver cause since then he's been lowering more before the serves and touching the floor with his hand. usually double players do that. i felt that it gave him luck. it's endearing.

i had not noticed this but this is very interesting and i think he should play more doubles!!!!!!! more nadalcaraz, more alcaruud, maybe even the pipe dream sincaraz doubles..... if we dare hope
