Sinner, Alcaraz Face Historic Third Consecutive Grand Slam Final

Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz are set to face each other for the third consecutive Grand Slam final of the 2025 season at the US Open, marking a historic rivalry in tennis. Sinner, the defending US Open champion and world No. 1, is aiming to become the first man since Federer to repeat as champion at Flushing Meadows and is on a streak of five straight Grand Slam finals. Alcaraz, currently ranked No. 2, is seeking his second US Open title and to regain the No. 1 ranking, having previously defeated Sinner in the French Open final after saving three match points. Both players have pushed each other to new heights, with Sinner boasting a strong record against all but Alcaraz, and Alcaraz noted for his improved consistency and serve. Their rivalry has drawn significant attention, including from President Donald Trump, who is expected to attend the final. The match not only decides the US Open champion but also who will hold the top spot in men's tennis rankings going forward.
