Alcaraz triumphs at US Open, defeats Sinner to claim sixth Grand Slam crown

New York (The Uttam Hindu): In the final match of the US Open, Spain's star tennis player Carlos Alcaraz defeated Italy's Yannick Sinner in a thrilling match that lasted for 4 sets. Alcaraz defeated Sinner 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 to win the US Open title for the second time. This is also the sixth Grand Slam title of his career.

Spain's Alcaraz defeated Italy's Sinner to win the US Open, clinching his sixth Grand Slam title: With this win, 22-year-old Alcaraz will regain the world number one crown. He will top the rankings for the first time since September 2023. This win also broke Sinner's streak of 27 consecutive wins in hard-court Grand Slams. Alcaraz also defeated Sinner at the French Open in June. This was Sinner's second Grand Slam final loss to Alcaraz.

A special statistic was also added to the US Open. No player has been able to defend his title since 2008. Roger Federer created this unique record by winning the trophy five times in a row from 2004 to 2008. Sinner, who was the winner last year, missed the title this time.

In the final match, Alcaraz dominated from the start. He easily won the first set 6-2 by breaking Sinner's serve in the first game itself. However, Sinner made a comeback in the second set and equalized the match by winning 6-3. In the third set, Alcaraz won 6-1 on the basis of brilliant smashes and continuous breaks. In the fourth set too, he broke Sinner's serve and won the set and the match 6-4. This young champion from Spain showed that he has joined the select few players in history to win titles on all three surfaces - hard court, clay and grass.
