This is the 6th Grand Slam title in the career of the 22-year-old Spanish tennis player.
In the 4-set match, Alcaraz showed stable performance and the ability to break through at decisive moments, thereby raising the head-to-head score with Sinner to 9-5. With this title, he has a bonus of 5 million USD.
The 2025 US Open is also the second of five Grand Slams Alcaraz has won, after Roland Garros. This achievement helped him equal the record of 6 Grand Slams with the two legends Boris Becker and Stefan Edberg in the Open era. At the same time, Alcaraz became the 4th player after Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Mats Wilander to win at least 2 championships in all 3 major tournaments.
Alcaraz now has two US Open titles, two for Roland Garros and two for Wimbledon. The Australian Open is the only Grand Slam he has not won, but the hard court at Melbourne promises to continue to suit the young tennis player's playing style.
The victory at Flushing Meadows also brought Alcaraz back to the world No. 1 position after 2 years. He has a total of 11,540 points on the ATP rankings, more than Jannik Sinner - who lost 750 points for failing to successfully defend his title.
