Izitendi, awabhenela kuzo uMurcian, nazo zamthwala ngamaphiko. Ekugqibeleni uncumo, i-digma yavela. NjengoRuusuvuori, njengoDimitrov, njengoZverev, njengoKhachanov. Omnye umdlalo, omnye uAlcaraz. Enye yezo nguqulelo ezichaza iintshatsheli. Abo bakhangela kwaye bakhangele kwaye batshintshe kwaye batshintshe kwaye batshintshe ngokuxhomekeke kwimbangi kunye nawe. Ipateni yokudlala ayizange iphinde iguqulwe. U-Struff wanamathela kwinkonzo yakhe kunye no-Alcaraz kweyakhe. Kwaye ke, ukuqhuma kwiindawo zokumisa, euphoria ebhentshini, ukukhwaza ezulwini kwiSpanishi.
