Hindu Editorial Vocab On The French Open Tournament 2024

One of tennis’ foremost challenges is in achieving multi-surface excellence. Grass, clay and the acrylic require varied skill sets, and while there are many jacks in the trade, there are very few masters. Carlos Alcaraz, with his maiden French Open title on Sunday, set himself on course towards joining an elite (the richest, most powerful, best-educated, or best-trained group in a society) bunch of such greats. The clay-court Major was the 21-year-old’s third, alongside US Open 2022 and Wimbledon 2023, and made him the youngest man in the Open Era (from 1968) to display such all-court mastery. The victory came at an important time for Alcaraz. Long considered the anointed (formally named as king or queen, especially as part of a ceremony) heir to the famed trio of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic, Alcaraz, in recent months, had not looked the part. Since winning Wimbledon, Indian Wells in March 2024 was his lone trophy, and the rise of Italian Jannik Sinner — Australian Open champion and the World No.1 — meant he had a generational (relating to different generations (= groups of people or members of a family who are around the same age) rival to contend with. Lingering fitness issues, including the arm injury that limited his Roland-Garros tune-up to just one event, proved debilitating (making someone or something physically weak). But with a back-to-the-wall performance, including in the semifinal and final where he was down two sets to one against Sinner and a resurgent (a new increase of activity or interest in a particular subject or idea that had been forgotten for some time) Alexander Zverev, Alcaraz chose one of the sport’s grandest stages to showcase his true worth.

Iga Swiatek is yet to match the Spaniard’s all-encompassing standards, but over the last two weeks, the 23-year-old showed that she was peerless (something that is peerless is better than any other of its type) on the red dirt. Saturday’s win over the unheralded (not previously known about or recognized for hard work or great achievements) Italian Jasmine Paolini earned Swiatek her third straight French Open, fourth in Paris and a fifth Slam overall. Swiatek’s dominance (the quality of being more important, strong, or successful than anything else of the same type) is best reflected in the fact that she has only ever entered six Roland-Garros singles main draws, has a 35-2 win-loss record and has lost just three sets in her four title-runs. Four-time Major champion Naomi Osaka did come within a point of ending Swiatek’s stay in the second round, but the Pole displayed enormous (extremely large) mental fortitude to weather the storm and not let the doubts consume her. So good was her fortnight that she started drawing comparisons with the early years of Nadal. While Nadal’s 14 titles may be insurmountable ((especially of a problem or a difficulty) so great that it cannot be dealt with successfully), Swiatek, like the 22-time Slam winner whom she idolises, can surely expand her success beyond clay. She is adept (having a natural ability to do something that needs skill) on the hard courts and has been the dominant World No.1 from April 2022, but for the eight weeks in late 2023 when Aryna Sabalenka reigned. The lack of success on grass — quarterfinals at Wimbledon 2023 being the best effort — has been Swiatek’s bane and she has a golden opportunity to correct that in three weeks.
