I have to say that Sinner is the “duck” coz he calm and serene on the surface (of the pond) but paddling like crazy underneath. Alcaraz would be the “chicken” coz he moves so fast, is light on his feet, and always optimistic. That leaves Medvedev as the “turkey” who wont back down and will fight back when threatened, a bit more noisy and very entertaining when you ruffle his feathers! Love the metaphor James

Sinner is seriously underrated. My sense is that he will dominate for years. On top of it, he’s way more popular than folks realize. His game is electric and he’s a quality human.

Carlos is Amazing!!! I Love his Game!!! Sinner is Excellent too...

Spot on as usual Andy ✌️

There will always be one Big 3, with 66 Grand Slams and almost 1000 weeks as number 1. My prediction is the new generation will have multiple slam winners, with Sinner and Alcaraz a little ahead.

I understand Roddicks take but I hope Alcaraz never loses his love of big shot making. As he matures he will likely get more selective as to when and when not to go for it, but that style is what makes him so thrilling to watch. There has also never been another player so balanced in terms of power, skill/feel, and IQ imo. I'm happy tennis finally has a next generation of young players deserving of the "torch," lead by Carlos.

Novak now has 420 weeks as number one despite all the Covid breaks...

Love this podcast Andy! Keep it up 🙌

Nole does not play Miami to be the number one a couple of weeks and be the oldest number one. Another milestone for Nole, the wise man

I just like how Andy genuinely loves the game and wants it to grow. I was a Fed head but wish Andy had that 2nd slam on his resume

Followed from instagram to youtube!

fascinating times. easy to forget that novak has won 3 of the last 5 slams and was finalist and semi-finalisr in the other 2. i do feel though that there's a changing of the guard happening. personally, i'm rooting for jannik. his tennis is just so exciting to watch. let's see what happens. some epic tennis matches ahead, that's for sure.

“Subcommittee of reliability” lmfaooo

I agree, it seems like a mental thing for Nole. Maybe the young 3 have figured out his game inside out and now he just needs to come up with new strategies.

why does there have to be a new Big 3???? We never heard that before THE Big 3... Just let them be themselves and if in 10 years those 3 or 4 are still at the top, we'll talk.

there is no new big three its carlos the phenomenon and jannick the machine the new big 2 thats it .. meddy is the andy murray at the moment .. always coming far but very few times able to beat the best of the best in finals

Best breakdown of tennis I ever heard a plumber give. Kudos 🎉😂

There will never be another big 3 in our lifetimes .

I get the impression that Andy knows a little bit about tennis :)

Alcaraz and Sinner are technically above the rest. With Sinner a higher edge in the long run like Fed vs Nadal. The big 2 will be more correct :)

This video says it was from an hour ago. But, it seems it was before the end of Miami.

Andy & Jon are such a terrific duo! Such eloquence, wit, insight & rapport. Wertheim’s meat trifecta analogy was so brilliantly original & hilarious. I kinda threw up in my mouth when he explained it’s duck, chicken & whatever else braided together & his joke about this being the “proximate cause” of obesity in America was hilarious 😅

Alcaraz, Sinner, Medvedev, Zverev, Tsitsipas have shown to be a step above their colleagues. Alcaraz and Sinner have the potential for GOAT trajectory

Interesting how they've all reached #1 in ranking now. So, now we need to see who is going to be the most consistently on top or will it keep changing hands? I already sense Daniil on a bit of a downturn as he's ranked #5 at the moment and he is the oldest of these three by a good number. My gut tells me it'll be Jannik. Carlos is already succumbing to injuries and mental lapses but he's the youngest.

I’m curious if Andy was ever a wrestler??!! I’ve heard a few wrestling references….

Alcaraz and Sinner look a little bit above Medvedev right now. The rivalry between them will be the biggest in the following years it seems like. To me Alcaraz is a bit more complete, he's very good at identifying when to go forward, and uses varied shots like dropshots and slices more naturally than Sinner, he's excellent in clay but he's won Wimbledon too. However Sinner has improved a lot lately, not only his serve, but his instinct for going to the net (and the occasional use of dropshots too). It's a fascinating duel.

For American's sake, Roddick needs to coach Ben Shelton. Father coach is too limited.

Turducken is all protein; it has nothing to do with obesity. Blame refined carbs (sugar), flour, and fast food/junk food for that.

If your life depended on it, who would you choose? The 'big three' or NOLE. ...comical

People are just ruining "Big 3." This term Big 3 wasn't used until after Federer won 14 slams - and now people are tossing around "Big 3" for everything. Win one slam and oh my god, you're the new Big 3!!! It's a joke. Why? There's already a phrase - "top 3." This is how language becomes meaningless. "Awesome" and "epic" used to mean something extraordinary but now it's how people describe a loaded hot dog. Meaningless. There's only one Big 3 - Federer, Nadal, Djokovic - there will never be another Big 3. Just leave it alone. Stop messing up a good thing.

alcaraz has too many distractions and already too many injuries

The Big 3 media moniker is the worst thing to happen to men's tennis since surface homogenization. It's lazy, reductive, anti-competitive, and attracts the most insufferable sideline braggarts. Let the Next Gen cohort do their own thing. The sooner we can move on from seeing everything through the lens of Big 3 media hysteria, the better. There is more to tennis than that rusty, readymade framework. Not for nothing, Meddy is too old to be grouped with Sinner & Alcaraz regardless of his Top 5 ranking. He belongs with the previous generational cohort and y'all know it. We're already beginning to see him enter a different phase of his career. It would be more appropriate to look at players like Shelton & Rune when discussing Next Gen players (18-24) currently leading the way. Right now, it's more of a Dynamic Diarchy or All-Court Consuls in Alcaraz & Sinner.

spped courts up everything is to slow detracting form the athletic ability and possible variation in tennis skills. PLEASE

Don't forget Zverev !!! For me better than Medvedev!!!!

I hope Carlos never loses too much of his finesse and fire. We already have the robot called Sinner who I don't enjoy watching at all.

Having Medvedev there over Joker when Medvedev can only play on one surface is laughable. Can Medvedev win Rolland Garros? WImbledon? Knock it off. Joker still up there with the young boys. Also, I don't think Medvedev's game will age well. I'd put Casper or Fritz over him long term.
