–

A highly anticipated final between the two best players in the world end up going pffttttt……… after just five games, all of them won by Carlos Alcaraz.

An unwell Sinner tried to show up. But that was about that to put a rather frazzled period at the end of a rather frazzled tournament overall.

Good thing it wasn’t the only match of the day.
