They say 'the machines of the future' will be as smart as people... OK, but WHICH people? Because it kinda matters quite a bit.

Jannik Sinner roars back to beat Carlos Alcaraz for first Wimbledon final win * Italian ends champion’s winning streak 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 * World No 1 seals fourth grand slam title For most tennis players in the distinguished history of this sport, a defeat as excruciating as Jannik Sinner’s loss to Carlos Alcaraz in the French Open final would have taken years to recover from. In Sinner’s case, it simply made him stronger. One month on from the toughest loss of his life, Sinner entered the Spaniard’s territory and turned the tables at the earliest possible opportunity, demonstrating his resilience in full flight as he recovered from a set down to win his first Wimbledon title with a spectacular performance, toppling the two-time defending champion 4-6, 6-4, 6-4 6-4.

Sinner dismantles ailing Djokovic to set up Wimbledon final against Alcaraz * Italian world No 1 triumphs 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 * Djokovic called for trainer at end of second set When Novak Djokovic strode on to Centre Court for a second contest with Jannik Sinner in barely over a month, the narrative had long been set. This was surely one of the 24-time grand slam champion’s last chances for a potential major victory, a challenge that will only become more difficult as he ages even further away from his physical peak while Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz move closer to their own. For the ensuing two hours on court, Sinner made it clear just how punishing that challenge already is as he completely dismantled a weakened Djokovic, the sixth seed, with his nuclear weight of shot and unimpeachable defence as he reached the Wimbledon final for the first time in his career with a dominant 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 win.
