Alcaraz Beats Sinner in Four Sets for Second US Open Title and Returns to World No. 1
On September 7, 2025, in the men's singles final of the US Open at Arthur Ashe Stadium in Flushing, Queens, New York, second seed Carlos Alcaraz defeated top seed and defending champion Jannik Sinner 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 to win his second US Open title, the ATP Tour reported with the result and match statistics.
The two-hour, 42-minute victory gave the 22-year-old Alcaraz the sixth Grand Slam title of his career, making him the second-youngest man in the Open Era to win six major singles titles. He will also return to No. 1 in the ATP Rankings on Monday, ending Sinner's 65-week reign and reclaiming the top spot for the first time since September 2023.
According to the ATP, Alcaraz hit 42 winners, double Sinner's total, was broken only once in the match, and won 98 of his 101 service games across the tournament. It was the pair's third consecutive meeting in a Grand Slam final, and between them they have won the past eight majors. Sinner's 27-match winning streak at hard-court majors came to an end. The final was delayed by approximately 50 minutes due to the security measures in place to accommodate U.S. President Donald Trump, who attended the match.
At the trophy presentation, Alcaraz thanked his team and family, saying every achievement he makes is thanks to them and that this one was no less theirs. Sinner congratulated his rival, saying Alcaraz and his team were doing an amazing job and were better than him on the day.
