Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner will meet again in a dream US Open final. Fans are very excited to catch this long awaited matchup! It will be their 14th meeting since they first played each other in 2021, friendly format or not. Both individuals have accomplished the extraordinary in their careers. Alcaraz, still only 22, has already won five Grand Slam titles and 20-year-old Sinner has four under his belt. Their historic rivalry has thrilled tennis fans around the globe, and this should be yet another exhilarating chapter in their saga.
Alcaraz has won his home ground title at the US Open, as well as having titles at Wimbledon and the French Open. Meanwhile, Sinner has secured one title at the US Open and three others across prestigious tournaments, including Wimbledon and the Australian Open. The players’ recent run of form has done nothing to quell the interest in this chapter’s face-off though.
Current Form and Performance
Carlos Alcaraz comes into the final with a 60-6 overall record in 2025. He has earned two other championship titles this year! His career win-loss record is 269-62, an incredible record as he has arguably been at the top of his game since turning pro. Though he recently lost to Sinner on Centre Court at Wimbledon in July, Alcaraz seemed particularly confident about his game after winning the US Open.
“Just the level that I start the match, just wanted to keep that level really high during the whole match,” – Carlos Alcaraz.
Few were surprised when Jannik Sinner ran his win-loss record to 37-4 this year. Roberts has already won six championships so far in 2025. His career record is just as intimidating at 300-84. Sinner’s recent success has solidified his presence among the elite in men’s tennis, making him a formidable opponent for Alcaraz.
“On court, we like to see each other, you know, because it means that, considering our ranking, it means that we are doing well in the tournament,” – Jannik Sinner.
The Rivalry Continues
The burgeoning rivalry between Alcaraz and Sinner has been well documented since their initial meeting. Alcaraz comes in with a slight advantage over Sinner, having won 10 of their 13 matches. Sinner’s victory at Wimbledon earlier this year demonstrates that he is more than capable of competing at the highest level.
The two men have displayed tremendous mutual respect in their previous meetings. Alcaraz’s comments in recent days show that competitive fire and commitment to ever-evolving excellence are firmly rooted inside him. Known for his tournament prowess, he wore that as a badge of honor. He understood the burden of expectation when you’re the standout player.
“I’m thinking I’m doing that in this tournament, which I’m really proud about,” – Carlos Alcaraz.
This exciting upcoming final will be the ultimate test of their skills. Beyond that, it will further test their mettle as they begin to feel the rigors of high-stakes tennis.
Prize Money and Career Earnings
On and off the field, both players have made piles of money to go with their on-field excellence. Carlos Alcaraz has already earned an eye-popping $48.5 million in career prize earnings, with hot-on-his heels Jannik Sinner second at $46.3 million. These mind-blowing paychecks are a testament to their ascendance in the game and the increasing financial opulence of today’s tennis world.
Both players are early in their careers. They have limitless opportunities to increase their trophies and cash prizes even more. As they prepare themselves for this critical last hurrah, their attention naturally turns to victory. They want to cement their legacies and dominance in professional tennis.
