(AP Photo/Frank Franklin II)Alcaraz vs Sinner US Open Final 2025 Tennis Highlights: Carlos Alcaraz just dropped one set in the entire US Open as he defeated Jannik Sinner 6-2 3-6 6-1 6-4 to clinch the title on Sunday. This was their 3rd Grand Slam final meeting with the last two major clashes being at Wimbledon and French Open respectively with the Spaniard winning the clay court match while the Italian clinched the grass court encounter.
Right from the beginning under a closed roof because of rain earlier in the day, No. 2 Alcaraz was better as he sought to reverse the result from when they met at the All England Club less than two months ago.
He did just that, putting his leads over Sinner at 10-5 in their head-to-head series, 6-4 in major trophies, and 2-1 in U.S. Open championships. Plus, this win allowed Alcaraz, a 22-year-old from Spain, to take away the No. 1 ranking from Sinner, a 24-year-old from Italy.

President Donald Trump was loudly booed at the men's final of the U.S. Open on Sunday, where extra security caused by his visit led to lines long enough that many people missed the start of play, even after organizers delayed it.
Roger Federer was sensational at the US Open when he won the men's singles titles in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008.
Since then, no man has defended his US Open title. That streak continues with Jannik Sinner's defeat. Just a notoriously hard title to confirm.

Two breaks of serve in the first set, two breaks of serve in the third set, plenty of errors sandwiched between those in the second set. Welcome to the Carlos Alcaraz show.
The Spaniard plays another dream set to take a 2-1 lead, by Vinayakk Mohanarangan
In the past 14 meetings, there has not been a single 6-0 set between Sinner and Alcaraz. The Italian just about avoided the bagel there.

And error by Sinner to give Alcaraz the lead
Alcaraz leads 1-0 in third set
As our tennis writer Namit Kumar had mentioned at the start of this second set, Carlos Alcaraz was playing so well early on that Novak Djokovic mode has to be turned on by Jannik Sinner. And boy has the Italian World No 1 done just that. Some of the rallies in this ended with Alcaraz errors of course but they were also largely because Sinner turned on his best court coverage and beast-level ball striking. Sinner levels up and levels the match, says Vinayakk Mohanarangan
What a forehand by Sinner to go 15-0 in the next game from his serve but Alcaraz comes back with a backhand to get 15-15. Beautiful shot as Sinner leaps into the air and slams a backhand beyond Alcaraz!!Serves for set point now. And Alcaraz goes long and Sinner wins this set.

Alcaraz leads 4-2 in first set
The first real ALCARAZ moment of the match in that fifth game, as the Spaniard plays a shot-of-the-day contender by digging out a stunning half volley winner at the net. Alcaraz seemed to let out a "wow" for himself there! But Sinner being Sinner calmly holds serve. This match, as the kids say, is cooking already, says Vinayakk Mohanarangan
Sinner with the serve now and what a delicious shot by Alcaraz. He comes forward near the net and just gently helps the ball over the net to go 30-0 up. Sinner comes back with a magnificent return before Alcaraz plays his own return wide. 30-30. And the Italian wins this one ultimately.
Alcaraz leads 3-2 in first set
What a cheek shot by Sinner to break Alcaraz!! The Spaniard had hit a big one just for Sinner to play a well-placed drop shot. Alcaraz, however, takes back the advantage with back to back points. 30-15 to Alcaraz now. Sinner plays out and now it's 40-15. Ufff!!! What a rally with Sinner almost catching Alcaraz off guard before the Spaniard roars back to win the game.
Alcaraz leads 3-1 in first set
On to the 3rd game of the first set and we are all square at 15-15 with Sinner playing wide. He takes back the advantage soon enough before losing it again with a shot that's gone out. 30-30. And finally Alcaraz's shot goes out as well as he couldn't quite control his volley off Sinner's return.
Alcaraz leads 2-1 in first set
And the second game is no different as the two familiar foes reach 15-15 in no time. Oh wow!! Alcaraz's hit bounced up awkwardly for Sinner who almost hits it for a six!! And Alcaraz goes up 40-15 with a smart shot across as Sinner is wrong-footed. Takes the game with a delightful drop shot!!
Alcaraz leads 2-0 in first set
If this first game of the match is anything to go by we are in for another marathon between these two. Alcaraz is playing a top return game as we go beyond 7 minutes. And he converts the second break point. There is no warming up between these two, it is top gear from the word go. And first blood to the Spaniard, says Vinayakk Mohanarangan
Sinner gets first serve and Alcaraz's strong shot has gone out. 15-0 to the defending champion. Another huge forehand gets Sinner up to 30-0.

Alcaraz in control now, breaking Sinner again!!! 40-30 to the Spaniard. And a bounce back from the Italian as we head to deuce. 40-40 currently. Advantage Sinner as the longest rally of the match so far sees Alcaraz play wide. Ditto, says Sinner as we are back to Deuce.
Sinner grabs the advantage yet again with a venoumous ace to which Alcaraz had no answer!!! And we are back to square one again as a vicious stroke by Alcaraz bamboozles Sinner. Deuce again. Alcaraz gets the advantage and does not let go as Sinner hits the net. First game to Alcaraz.

And here are both players coming out to the court with Sinner and Alcaraz both being interviewed before making their way to the court for some last words. Now they are in the court with some weird techno music playing in the background.

And it's finally time for live action as the US national anthem is being sung. The players will come out on the court soon as we are almost all set to get the match underway.
Alcaraz has 11 wins against top-10 players in 2025, the most on the ATP circuit. He also has won more titles and matches this year than anyone else. However, Sinner did serve a suspension if you recall before the French Open, says Vinayakk Mohanarangan
There's always a curiosity that how much a professional sports player is paid for entertaining thousands of fans. It turns out, it's a lot. For the US Open, the winner will walk away with a cool $5m check as well as the prestigious trophy.

Alcaraz has yet to lose a set in this US Open, having bludgeoned through every opponent put in front of him with his latest straight set victory against Novak Djokovic the crown jewel. If he can maintain that streak in the final as well, he'll make history to be the first man in the Open Era to win the US Open without losing a set.
President Donald Trump is attending the US Open on Sunday as a guest of Rolex despite imposing steep tariffs on the Swiss watchmaker's home country and with organisers seeking to keep off-court disruptions — like audience members booing him — from being seen on the TV broadcast.
He'll be watching the men's final between second-seeded Carlos Alcaraz, a 22-year-old Spaniard, and No 1 seed and defending champion Jannik Sinner, 24, of Italy, from Rolex's suite.
"As a result of the security measures in place, and to ensure that fans have additional time to get to their seats, we have pushed the start time of today’s match to 2:30 pm ET," says the US Open official X account. That means the start time will now be at 12 AM IST instead of 11.30 PM IST
Alcaraz comes into the proceedings red hot. He crushed a competitive Djokovic in straight sets in the other semifinal on Friday. He has never served better, never been more ruthless with his groundstrokes, and his all-court game has never looked better on a hard court. The five-time Major winner may be entering Sinner’s domain, but he arrives with ideas of acquisition on his mind.
Late on Friday, Sinner rolled Canada’s Felix-Auger-Aliassime 6-1, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 to reach his fifth consecutive Major final. He became only the fourth man in the Open Era – after Rod Laver, Roger Federer, and Novak Djokovic – to reach every single Major final in a calendar year. His streak of consecutive hardcourt victories at the Grand Slam level extended to 27. Only Federer (36) has ever won more.
The giddiness about men’s tennis’s future that Carlos Alcaraz’s glorious escape against Jannik Sinner in Sunday’s French Open final elicited is most evident in the drastic conclusions that Andy Roddick drew. “It’s just absurd – the level that these two have taken the game to,” the American former World No. 1-turned-podcaster said on his YouTube channel. “Like the ‘Big Three’ before them, they are pushing the game to heights that I don’t know if we have seen before.” (READ MORE)
Since the start of the 2024 season, Jannik Sinner or Carlos Alcaraz will have now claimed the title in 16 of the 17 ATP-level events they have both appeared in, with last year’s Madrid Open the only exception, says Opta
With one hand already on the trophy, nearly three hours into one of the biggest matches of his career, Jannik Sinner’s worst humiliation may well have played on his mind. It had only been five weeks since the Italian had squandered three championship points for the French Open title, before losing in five sets to Carlos Alcaraz. Sinner’s rival had won the last five matches against him going into their next title clash, the biggest match on the tennis calendar. (READ MORE)
The greatest credit one can give to the Carlos Alcaraz-Jannik Sinner marathon at the French Open final on Sunday is that it simultaneously made us nostalgic about the Roger Federer-Rafael Nadal-Novak Djokovic era of Grand Slam finales while reaffirming the tennis world that the future of the sport is in safe hands. It has been evident for some time now that Alcaraz vs Sinner is the rivalry that will define this era of men’s tennis. But until Sunday at Roland Garros, the two rising superstars hadn’t met in a Grand Slam final. And what’s more, neither had lost a Major final they had played in with Alcaraz 4/4 and Sinner 3/3. Sinner hadn’t won a match that lasted beyond 4 hours. Alcaraz hadn’t won a Major match after going down by two sets. Something had to give. And they gave the world a final to remember. (READ MORE)
Following a tournament marked by drama, comebacks, and meltdowns, the fortnight-long trudge to the inevitable is complete.
In a repeat of the title clashes at the French Open and Wimbledon this summer, Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz, far and wide the best players in the world, will meet in the final of the US Open on Sunday. The anticipation of the third chapter of their Major final trilogy this year will reach a fever pitch, especially in front of the expectant and boisterous New York crowd. Even Donald Trump is set to be in attendance. (Check out our preview here)
“He has improved the serve a lot,” Sinner said after his semi-final game. “I feel like he is serving much better with a better pace but the percentage is high all the time. It’s much more solid.Maybe before there were more ups and downs, but now he is very consistent. If you watch all the tournaments, he is going very far.”
Tonight's match is Sinner’s fifth final in a row at the biggest events in tennis, a run that began with his title at the U.S. Open a year ago. Since the start of that tournament, he has won 33 of 34 matches at the majors. The loss? To Alcaraz at Roland-Garros.
With US president Donald Trump set to be in attendance, Carlos Alcaraz had said that his presence was a great thing for tennis, adding that he won't be thinking too much about it, in case he gets nervous.
“I think that it is a privilege for the tournaments having the president from every country just to support the tournament, to support tennis, and to support the match. For me, playing in front of him … I will try not to think about it. I don’t want myself to be nervous because of it, but I think attending the tennis match, it’s great for tennis to have the president at the final,” Alcaraz said at the post-match press conference after defeating Novak Djokovic in straight sets.
As Aryna Sabalenka has used her power-packed game to chart a path straight to the top of women’s tennis since the start of last year, her mental fortitude has defined her success. The 27-year-old from Belarus has been the most consistent player on the tour because she has established an innate ability to course-correct within matches even when she is not at her best, isolating moments when she can take her game up a gear and build momentum.
