Carlos Alcaraz Wins Queen's Club, Extends 18-Match Streak

Carlos Alcaraz has cemented his status as a dominant force in tennis by winning the 2025 Queen's Club Championships, defeating Jiri Lehecka 7-5, 6-7 (5), 6-2 in a hard-fought final. This victory marked his second Queen's title in three years, extended his winning streak to 18 matches, and brought his career total to 21 titles, while also making him just the second man in history to win both Roland Garros and Queen’s Club in the same year. Alcaraz showcased remarkable adaptability transitioning from clay to grass courts with minimal practice, firing 18 aces and avoiding break points throughout the final. His strong form has him leading the ATP Tour in wins and titles for the 2025 season, and he is now tied with Rafael Nadal for the most grass-court titles among active players, setting him up as a favorite to defend his Wimbledon crown. Despite a brief break before the tournament, Alcaraz expressed focus and excitement for Wimbledon, acknowledging the challenge posed by opponents like Novak Djokovic and Jannik Sinner. Lehecka, who made history as the first Czech finalist at Queen’s since 1990, pushed Alcaraz to a deciding set but ultimately could not overcome the Spaniard’s composure and skill.
