New York – Carlos Alcaraz won the US Open 2025 title, unleashing euphoria among the 24,000 spectators at Arthur Ashe Stadium. After an exciting match, the young tennis player celebrated his sixth Grand Slam title, solidifying his position at the top of world tennis.
The final, which pitted Alcaraz against his rival and friend Jannik Sinner, was an unmissable spectacle. Ticket prices reached stratospheric figures, and the world number one was at stake. Alcaraz prevailed with a score of 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4, demonstrating his superiority on the court.
The match marked the third consecutive Grand Slam final between both players, evidencing the clear dominance of this duo on the circuit. The mutual admiration between Alcaraz and Sinner, both on and off the court, was evident in their gestures of respect and camaraderie.
“I see you more than my family,” Alcaraz joked during the awards ceremony, addressing Sinner.

Alcaraz’s victory at the 2025 US Open symbolizes the beginning of a new era in men’s tennis, relegating the historic “Big Three” to the background. The absence of Djokovic, Federer, and Nadal from Grand Slam finals since 2002 highlights the changing of the guard in the sport.
On the road to the final, Alcaraz demonstrated his dominance by defeating Novak Djokovic in the semifinals with a score of 6-4, 7-6 (4), 6-2. Djokovic, recognizing the difficulty of overcoming Alcaraz and Sinner in the major tournaments, anticipated a challenging future.
Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner have won the last eight Grand Slam titles.The 2024 season marked the beginning of the “Sincaraz” era, with Sinner conquering the Australian Open and Alcaraz Wimbledon. In 2025, the duo has repeated the feat, facing each other in three consecutive Grand Slam finals. The consistency of Alcaraz and Sinner has made them the clear favorites, with four Grand Slam titles each since 2024.
The question now is: Will anyone else be able to break the hegemony of Alcaraz and Sinner in the near future? Players like Ben Shelton and Joao Fonseca have shown flashes of potential, but the task of dethroning the current leaders of world tennis seems complicated.“We know they are the two best players in the world,” said Novak Djokovic, winner of 24 Grand Slam titles, at the US Open.In this year’s Masters 1000 events, Alcaraz has achieved three victories, while four other players, including Jack Draper, Jakub Menšík, Casper Ruud, and Ben Shelton, have also achieved wins. Ben Shelton, currently ranked number 6, has won three titles in his career and reached two Grand Slam semi-finals.
The young Brazilian Joao Fonseca, who currently holds the number 44 spot, is another name that resonates as a future contender. John Isner, former world number 8, believes Fonseca has a good chance to challenge the dominant duo.This year, Sinner won the Australian Open and Wimbledon, while Alcaraz took the Wimbledon and US Open titles.The superiority of Alcaraz and Sinner during the US Open was evident. Before the final, both had won at least 95% of their service games. Alcaraz and Sinner became the second pair in the open era to win all Grand Slam titles in two consecutive seasons, emulating Federer and Nadal in 2006 and 2007. They are also the first duo in the open era to play in three consecutive Grand Slam finals in the same calendar year.
Despite the clear dominance of Alcaraz and Sinner, tennis is an unpredictable sport. Medvedev, who at one point seemed destined to lead the generational shift, has experienced difficulties this year. However, the sport always provides surprises.
The possibility of other players challenging Alcaraz and Sinner in the future is real, just as Andy Murray, Stan Wawrinka, and Juan Martín del Potro found their place in the era of Djokovic, Federer, and Nadal.
In summary, the 2025 US Open has confirmed the rise of Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner as the great dominators of world tennis, marking the beginning of a new era full of expectations.
