The tennis world bows down to the new royalty! Carlos Alcaraz conquered the US Open 2025, unleashing euphoria and solidifying his dominance alongside Jannik Sinner. The final, an epic duel in front of an audience of 24,000 spectators at Arthur Ashe Stadium, confirmed the supremacy of these two titans of the sport.
Alcaraz, after securing the victory with a score of 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4, demonstrated his respect and friendship towards Sinner, his rival on the court and friend off it. This match marked his third consecutive final in a Grand Slam, with the world number 1 at stake.
Alcaraz’s victory highlights the generational transition in men’s tennis. The absence of “Big Three” members (Djokovic, Federer, and Nadal) in a major final since 2002 is a clear indication of the new era. Djokovic, after being defeated by Alcaraz in the semifinals, acknowledged the difficulty of overcoming these two young talents in Grand Slam tournaments.
