McEnroe sent a clear message. This was not just a regular tennis match but a statement! In their thrilling history-breaking duel, Alcaraz and Sinner elevated tennis and showcased the world what the sport can be when greatness meets grace.

Alcaraz, 22, fought from two sets down and saved three championship points to defend his Roland Garros crown in a magnificent six-hour Paris thriller

The French Open final will be Alcaraz and Sinner’s 12th career meeting, and the first in a grand slam final. Alcaraz leads the overall head-to-head 7-4 and has four wins in a row against the Italian, including in the Rome final last month.
