World number two tennis player Carlos Alcaraz has won Roland Garros. In the French Open final, the Spaniard defeated Jannik Sinner 3:2 after a great comeback.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The set scores were 4:6, 6:7(4), 6:4, 7:6(3), 7:6(10:2).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was the second-longest match in Grand Slam final history, and at 5 hours and 29 minutes, the longest at Roland Garros. The longest was played by Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal in Melbourne in 2012, when the match lasted 5 hours and 53 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is Alcaraz’s fifth Grand Slam trophy, and his second at Roland Garros. He has won one US Open and two Wimbledons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sinner, upon returning to the court after a break due to doping, simply strolled to the final in Paris, while Alcaraz struggled more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first set brought a lot of excitement. Alcaraz missed break opportunities at the start, but was still the first to get his name in that category after breaking his rival’s serve in the fifth game. However, his joy did not last long as Sinner immediately broke back for 3:3. However, towards the end, Alcaraz requested medical assistance due to an eye problem. At 5:4 for Sinner, he played somewhat worse, which the Italian used to take a 1:0 lead in sets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Riding the momentum of the first set, the Italian took a 3:0 lead. Sinner maintained the distance until 5:2 and it seemed he was one step away from winning the second set. However, Alcaraz came back into the set almost out of nowhere and leveled it at 5:5. The players entered a tie-break, and Sinner started it better, taking a 5:2 lead. It turned out to be enough to close out the set and take a 2:0 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the start of the third set, we saw two breaks for 1:1, and soon after, Alcaraz took another break for 3:1. The Spaniard served at 5:3 for the set, but it simply wasn’t meant to be concluded calmly. Sinner broke him for 4:5 and served for a complete comeback. However, Alcaraz responded with a perfect game in which he didn’t lose a single point on Sinner’s serve. This was enough for Alcaraz to reduce the set deficit to 1:2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Up to 3:3 in the fourth set, everything went smoothly. And then a storm. Sinner broke with a bagel in the seventh game, and then confirmed it for 5:3. The craziest game of the match followed. Sinner reached 0:40, or three consecutive match points. But Alcaraz saved every one and extended the final. And then he made sure to extend it even further by breaking for 5:5. The players entered a tie-break in which Sinner took a 2:0 lead, and Alcaraz turned it around to 4:2. The Spaniard managed to maintain the distance and thus won the set that brought the match into a fifth set \u2013 2:2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Already in the first game of the fifth set, Alcaraz broke, and then confirmed it for 2:0. The players then held their service games, so Alcaraz served for the match at 5:4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And he failed. Sinner earned two consecutive break points, and this time he used the second one for 5:5 and an extension of the match. The Italian with great difficulty won the next game on his serve for 6:5, and then Alcaraz for 6:6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And then the Spaniard’s hurricane began in the super tie-break. He took a 3:0 lead, then 6:0, and immediately 7:0. Then Sinner won two consecutive points, but Alcaraz stopped that for 8:2. The Spaniard also won the next two points, thus ending the epic final, the first between these two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Incidentally, this was the first time in history that a Grand Slam final was played by two players born after 2000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
