Carlos Alcaraz is still in the early part of building an impressive résumé, but no matter what he does during what’s certain to be a legendary career, his comeback victory over Jannik Sinner will always be remembered.
In the first Grand Slam final featuring a head-to-head battle between the two young stars, Alcaraz came out on top in epic fashion.
A year after Alcaraz captured Roland Garros in five sets despite falling behind Alexander Zverev 2-1, Alcaraz pulled off an even bigger comeback this time.
He dropped the first two sets to Sinner, 4-6 and 6-7 (4), before coming back 6-4, 7-6 (3), 7-6 (10-2).
