Per the AP, Tampa Bay is the sixth team since the NFL merger to start 2-0 in five straight seasons, joining:

CHI 1984-91 (8)
MIA 1994-99 (6)
DEN 2013-18 (6)
HOU 2010-14 (5)
DAL 1975-79 (5)
TB 2021-25 (5)**

Sinner didn’t have his best stuff today, and Alcaraz was great - especially his serve. Kudos to Alcaraz for his level the whole tournament.

Perfect set of tennis by Alcaraz coupled with a rough set by Sinner. Sinner has to regain that consistency from the baseline or Alcaraz will win in three sets.

Update: It didn’t work.

One set down, two to go..

HE FIXED IT! Comeback loading..

Ok you're down two sets now Taylor. There's only one way to come back - turn the headband the other way

Is anyone going to tell Taylor Fritz that his headband is upside down??

I still can't get over this. How does his barber still have a job? 🤣

So glad history will show I didn’t vote for this moron

Note to all tennis events. This is the optimal viewing angle

Really wish we saw Chubbs too. He would have killed it!

Happy Gilmore 2 was everything I expected it to be. It’s not winning any Oscars but it’s a perfect sequel.

Which player will get the Grand Slam first?

Alcaraz needs Australia. Sinner is the b2b champ there.

Sinner needs the French. Had 3 match points a month ago.

People were all on Alcaraz but there’s a reason Sinner is the number one player in the world.

So well deserved. #Wimbledon

Happy for Iga but that was a brutal performance from Amanda. Nerves just never went away

This Sincaraz poster from Wimbledon in 2023 goes extra hard right now.

Djokovic must hate that he keeps losing to a younger version of himself

Absolutely gutted for Dmitrov. He played an excellent match.

Wimbledon has been CRAZY so far and we're not even out of Round 1 🙃

Respectfully, this guy should not have the platform he does.

I sense a trend here..

That said it’s only Sinners fourth or fifth event of the SEASON. And he still almost beat Alcaraz. On clay. No doubt he’ll be in contention in London and New York.

That’s gonna be a tough one for Sinner to swallow. Obviously the three match points but then immediately got broken after when serving for it.

Not sure if anything in sports is more entertaining than tennis at its best

Probably the best match I can recall since 08 Wimbledon final. Kudos to both, gave us an incredible match!

Last sentence applicable as Alcaraz just did the same thing in the fifth.

Interesting thing about this match is that Sinner has been the better/more consistent player but will still probably lose. Just shows how high the good is for Alcaraz.

Little choke there from Sinner. I’ve always said if I was a player I’d want to break to win a title versus serving for it. Different level of pressure on your serve. #FrenchOpen
