Sinner’s Streak Faces Big Challenges

Jannik Sinner, riding a 29-match win streak and fresh off five straight titles, is the overwhelming favorite to capture his first French Open crown and complete the career grand slam — but with Carlos Alcaraz sidelined, the door is wide open for challengers. Novak Djokovic, despite his age and recent health woes, remains a looming threat after their recent five-set thriller in Melbourne. Alexander Zverev, the second seed and clay specialist, could make a deep run and possibly face Djokovic in the semis. Medvedev, Auger-Aliassime, and even rising American Ben Shelton could stir the pot, while an unexpected footnote: the last player to beat Sinner before his streak was Jakub Menšík — who hasn’t lived up to that moment since.
