Jannik Sinner and Grigor Dimitrov have stormed into the finals, setting up a match date at the Miami Open. With an age gap of 1o years between them, this is a match between two different generations characterized by their playing styles. Apart from having a career-high ranking of No. 3 in the world, there is virtually no similarity between the career trajectories of the two.
The same holds true for their respective paths up till the finals at the Miami Gardens, to which the fans have reacted strongly giving the Bulgarian an edge over the young Italian.

The user says that the post is “pretending” to believe that the journies have been similar, by stating that they were both difficult.
One fan poses a rhetorical question to highlight the difference in their journies.
Other than facing Medvedev, Sinner’s path was difficult?
— ᴅᴀʟᴇ (@DaleKerr) March 31, 2024
He seems to be pointing out the number of quality of opponents faced by each player, suggesting the numbers to be on Dimitrov’s side.
Another fan cannot believe someone as credible can make such unreasonable comparisons.
we’re your drunk making this? https://t.co/eKbJOV606Z

The fan clearly questions the process of coming up with such an analysis of the stats at hand.
Assisted by an idiom in his reaction, one fan says that he has the correct analysis.
Sinners path was a piece of cake, 1 top 10 compared with Dimitrov which will be 4 top 10 players
— Danik (@scubinsky777) March 31, 2024
The fan says the number of top ten players Dimitrov faced is more than the number of top ten players Sinner faced. Making the Italian’s “road to the finals” look like a “piece of cake”.
Another fan points out the discrepancy in their comparison stating that the only top ten Sinner faced was also out of form.

The fan says, that Sinner facing Daniil Medvedev in the semis was the only tough match, but only on paper as the Russian was not even close to being true to his usual form.
