Yannick Sinner missed a match point – the Italian lost to Carlos Alcaraz

Alcaraz and Sinner put on an epic match that ended around three in the morning in New York. It was a real “battle” of 5 hours and 15 minutes, an emotional roller coaster.

Carlos won in five sets 6-3, 6-7(7), 6-7(0), 7-5, 6-3. In the fourth set, the Spaniard saved the match point.

Know:

  • If he wins the US Open, Carlos Alcaraz will become the youngest world leader in ATP history (since 1973, when the world hierarchy exists).
