Sabalenka, Alcaraz Claim Second US Open Titles
Written by Black Hot Fire Network on September 8, 2025
Sinner recovered convincingly in the second set, holding his serve more confidently and breaking Alcaraz for a 3-1 lead and gesturing to a roaring Arthur Ashe Stadium. With more precise rallies and athletic winners at the net, he confidently held serve to bring the match back to level terms.
It was now Alcaraz’s turn to respond in the third, breaking Sinner in his first service game and hitting a remarkable overhead flamethrower that spun past Sinner to hold serve for a 3-0 advantage. Breaking once more and continuing to dial up his serve, he restored his set lead.
The fourth set saw more of the same from Alcaraz, who was more consistent on both ends throughout the match: Alcaraz had 10 total aces compared to Sinner’s 2, and punished Sinner’s 48% first serve accuracy, winning 52% of the Italian’s second serve points. At championship point, Alcaraz fizzed a 134 mile per hour ace past Sinner to seize his second career US Open title. The New World No. 1 embraced the former at the net, and busted out his signature golf swing celebration as he was engulfed in a standing ovation.
This result marks the eighth Major in a row that was won by either Sinner or Alcaraz, tipping the all-time Grand Slam score to 6-4 in favor of Alcaraz. As curtains close on the 2025 season, the tennis world patiently awaits their next epic duel, which is surely on the horizon.
