On Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross dissects Jannik Sinner’s victory over Felix Auger-Aliassime in the 2025 Rolex Paris Masters to lift that trophy for the first time in his career and extend the win streak on indoor hardcourt to 26.

On a special interview edition of Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross is joined by former top-5 player Jimmy Arias to discuss the evolution of tennis and the modern game. One of the most fascinating things about tennis, is how it has continued to change over the years. I think we’ve reached a point where it’s starting to become clear how 2020s tennis is going to be viewed as an evolution. It’s one thing looking at Sinner and Alcaraz- that’s only two players. It’s when you start considering: Fils, Rune, Lehecka, Fonseca, Cobolli, and Draper… not to to say they’re all the same. But you can start to see a prototype forming for the modern player of the mid to late 2020s.

On Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross breaks down Carlos Alcaraz's 6-4 6-4 win over Taylor Fritz in the final of the Tokyo 500, which reversed the Laver Cup result from just over a week ago.

Alcaraz has pulled out but reigning champion Jannik Sinner and last year's finalist Novak Djokovic are both present.

On Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross dissects Carlos Alcaraz's resounding 4-set win over Jannik Sinner in the 2025 US Open final. It's Alcaraz's 6th slam title and 2nd in New York. We'll start by examining the excellence of Alcaraz's summer, his tournament run and this performance in the final. Then we'll unpack the reasons why Alcaraz was able to do more damage on his serve and was more deadly from offensive positions than Sinner. We'll evaluate Sinner's performance in isolation.
