US Open 2025 Final: Alcaraz Falls Short in Bid for History

The US Open 2025 final between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner is being broadcast live, with commentary from experts providing insights to the millions of viewers tuning in.

Going into the final, Alcaraz had an impressive record, having played without dropping a set prior to the US Open 2025 final. He had a chance to become the first player since Australian Neale Fraser to reach a Grand Slam final without dropping a set, and the first man in the Open era to do so.

However, the final proved to be a challenging encounter for Alcaraz. He started strongly, winning the first set 6-2, but Sinner, despite struggling at the start of the match, raised his level of play to level the score at one set all, winning the second set 6-3.

This marked the first time Alcaraz dropped a set in a Grand Slam tournament, a setback in his bid to make history. Sinner, who has previously defeated Alcaraz, including a Wimbledon final win in July 2025, capitalised on the opportunity.

Despite the loss, Alcaraz can be proud of his performance. The US Open 2025 final was his first Grand Slam final in his career, and he had defeated Sinner to win the US Open title in their previous encounter.

The US Open 2025 final is currently in progress, with audiences watching live as the two tennis stars battle it out on the court. The match is being commentated on live, providing viewers with expert analysis and insights into the game.

Whether Alcaraz can regroup and claim victory remains to be seen, but one thing is certain - this final is shaping up to be an exciting and closely contested match.
