With the imminent decline of the “big three”, led by Novak Djokovic con 24 Grand Slams, Rafael Nadal with 22 and Roger Federer At 20, they are looking for new generations with intense and extensive rivalries like the ones these three had accustomed us to. It is clear that filling the shoes of these giants of the sport is not easy, considering that they are the first to have accustomed us to such an emblematic competition since Jimmy Connors, Bjorn Borg y John McEnroe.

The three new promises of tennis
The three new tennis promises are beginning to stand out in the world elite thanks to their performance, personality and results. It will not be an easy task to make a place for themselves in their category due to the high demands that exist within the sport, but if anyone can do it, it is them. They stand out not only for their achievements, but also for becoming an example on the court given their resilience, attitude and personality that many tennis lovers take into account.
Over the last few years, tennis has become a much more physical sport in terms of speed, technique and reflexes, therefore, some of the promising players who have the best chances of taking these positions would be:
Carlos Alcaraz (21 years old):
The young Spaniard has proven himself more than ready, winning 4 GS trophies in a span of 2 years. This is impressive not only because of his age, but also because 2 of them were against Novak Djokovic, who is the second player with the most trophies at Wimbledon, the venue where his victories against the Serbian took place.

Jannik Sinner (23 years old):
The Italian, at his young age, is the holder of 3 Masters 1000 titles and a Grand Slam that he won earlier this year at the Australian Open by coming back from two sets down against a Daniil Medvedev who already knew what it was like to be a finalist on that court.
Ben Shelton (21 years old):
Although the American only has two official titles, an ATP 250 and an ATP 500, the left-hander from Atlanta, Georgia, stands out for being ranked number 13 in the world and for his aggressive game. There is no doubt that if he manages to overcome and improve his behavior on the court, he will be able to be among the best in the world and with one or another higher category title in his showcase.
These three players are still young, they have a lot to prove and tournaments to play. It would be illogical to ask each of them to win the same Grand Slams as their predecessors, so tennis fans can be happy if each time they face each other their rivalry grows more and more and makes them go down in history. The reality is that only time will tell…
