Sinner and Alcaraz are meeting for the third consecutive major final. They are the first pair to meet in three Slam men’s singles finals in a season in the Open Era (since 1968).
Alcaraz saved three championship points to win the Roland Garros final, before Sinner earned revenge to claim the Wimbledon trophy. Alcaraz leads their Lexus ATP Head2Head series 9-5.
