If he wins, Jannik Sinner will be the fifth man in Open Era history to win three straight majors—US Open, Australian Open, and now Roland Garros.
Despite their rivalry, this is only Sinner’s second Slam win (if completed) over Alcaraz—most of his wins came in ATP 1000s.
Carlos is 0-5 when down two sets in a major—but holds a 12-1 record in fifth sets. The fourth set is absolutely crucial.
He's on a 20-match Slam winning streak, second only to Nadal’s 31 in the Open Era at Roland Garros.
This is the first Grand Slam final where both players were born in the 21st century, marking a generational shift in men’s tennis.
Sinner (No. 1) and Alcaraz (No. 2) are the first top-two ranked men to contest a Paris final since Djokovic vs. Nadal in 2012.
