Playing for over 4 million USD for the winner, who prevails?

Alca has a big mental edge right now, so it's 60-40 for him. Most depends on Jannik's serve day, if he serves like in US Open final he loses, if he serves like against Djoko yesterday or Wimbledon final, he should win.

Sinner in 2.

Sheikh Turki will probably ask the boys to put up some performance for the audience and other sheikhs. So going for 3 sets in favour of Alcaraz. The ultimate prize is much bigger than they can get at any grand slam (after taxes).

It’s either the camera view, or Netflix broadcast settings or because the match is more of exhibition, but the court and balls feel very slow yet the players are not chasing every ball.

The court is fast and high-bouncing, a not usual combination! according to the commentators (ex tennis pros)

This has to be the worst exhibition ever devised. Usually in exhibitions, there is a fun atmosphere, weird format... something! This format is just QF-SF-F, but two of the QFs are byes. So like a regular tournament but worse. The only motivation is piles of Saudi blood money- aren't these guys already rich? And the match quality itself has been dire, lopsided, lacking fun points. Never watching again.
