Jannik Sinner captured his 22 career title on the indoor courts in Vienna and continued to prove that he's close to unbeatable indoors the past few years. Joao Fonseca, the young Brazilian teenage phenom won his first ATP 500 title in Basel last week defeating Davidovich Fokina in straight sets. Can he be a challenger to the Sinner and Alcaraz era?
