US EditionSinner, Alcaraz tease doubles partnership ahead of Incheon exhibition match
- On Jan 9, Carlos Alcaraz, world No. 1, and Jannik Sinner, world No. 2, floated the prospect of playing doubles while preparing for their exhibition in Incheon, South Korea.
- Discussing why, the players cited complementary skills—Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, world No. 2, noted forehand/backhand pairing but said heavy singles schedules make doubles difficult, with talks possible later this year.
- On paper, their head-to-head shows Alcaraz leads 10-6, including 4-2 in 2025, and the pair have won nine of the last 10 Grand Slam titles between them.

- Dubbed 'Sincaraz', the duo have been credited with ushering men's tennis beyond the Big Three, but Sinner said, `We need to see how long we can keep up with this level. What the Big Three has done, we cannot compare ourselves with them.
